Roaring 20's Come to Life at Glamorous Grand Opening of Hayes Barton

Luxury Senior Living Community Celebrates Its Arrival with Great Gatsby-Themed Celebration

RALEIGH, NC — It was an event of grandeur, glamour, and Gatsby-style glitz as Hayes Barton Place, Raleigh’s new luxury senior living community, celebrated its much-anticipated grand opening. First opening its doors in January, the community formally introduced itself to the public and its community partners with an unforgettable event inspired by the roaring twenties — a nod to the opulence, elegance, and timeless energy of the Great Gatsby era.

The event was a dazzling spectacle of elevated entertainment. Guests were welcomed by towering golden ladies on stilts at the entrance, setting the tone for an immersive and theatrical experience. Inside, attendees were captivated by Gatsby bubble dancers gliding through the pool in inflated globes, beautiful butterfly ballerinas with flowing ribbon wings, and a charming “bubble belle” serving fluted champagne from a rolling skirt. Live music filled the air, accompanying guests as they enjoyed exquisite delicacies and sipped celebratory cocktails.

A custom-crafted cake replicating the architecture of Hayes Barton Place stood as a centerpiece — both a literal and symbolic representation of the community’s beauty and attention to detail.

Designed to reflect the lifestyle of a fine all-inclusive resort, Hayes Barton Place offers concierge services, gourmet dining, spa and wellness options, and beautifully appointed residences — all set in a community that honors the neighborhood’s rich heritage and charm.

Addressing the attendees at the event, Will Purvis, President of Liberty Senior Living said, “Hayes Barton Place offers adults the opportunity to live in a dynamic community with a variety of living options, world-class amenities, and services provided by an incredibly dedicated staff. We look forward to meeting and exceeding their needs and helping create meaningful and enriching experiences.”

Ginger Baker, Campus Executive Director, delivered a heartfelt champagne toast, stating, “Hayes Barton Place isn’t just a beautiful space — it’s a vision brought to life. A vision where elegance meets care, where community flourishes, and where every detail has been designed with comfort and meaning in mind…Here’s to new beginnings, lasting legacies, and the promise of a life well lived.”

The grand opening event was not just a celebration, but a statement: Hayes Barton Place is redefining what it means to age with style, grace, and joy.
