Two Like-Minded Oregon Families Deliver Unique Model for Vital Senior Living with Luxury Public Community Center, Restaurant and Coffee Shop; Theater, Gym and Saltwater Pool; No Upfront Buy-in Charge; Personalized, Integrated Care Team Delivering Medical Services On-Site
EUGENE, Ore. – Oregon’s fifth generation Fogg and Giustina families share a legacy of growing things. The Fogg family, Oregon’s largest provider of assisted living and senior care facilities, grow five-star communities that promote vitality of life. The Giustina family, operators of one of Oregon’s oldest timber companies, grow sustainable forests into fine wood products. Together, they are creating Marquis Eugene, a vibrant new neighborhood in central Eugene, that will promote senior engagement with the greater community.
Historic Hazelnut Orchard Becomes Innovative Senior Living Village Open to Public
This is the first foray into senior living for the Giustinas, who are leasing the 12 acres to Marquis.
“Over the years, developers have made lots of proposals for the orchard, but none sat well with us,” says Giustina Land & Timber Co. Operating Manager, Mark Giustina. “We were looking for a long-term partner with similar goals to bring a high-quality addition to our community.”
Then, they met the Foggs. Partnering was a natural fit for the two families.
“We have deep roots in Eugene – from my years at the University of Oregon, to building our post acute care facility in Springfield,” says Marquis Companies Founder and CEO, Phil Fogg Jr. “So, it’s wonderful for us to expand our comprehensive living and healthcare services to the area and to do that with the Giustinas who’ve given so much to the community.”
Meeting the Demands of Eugene’s Rapidly Growing and Discerning Senior Market
By 2030, for the first time in US history, seniors will become the majority and they’re demanding lifestyle choices that redefine wellness, culture, home, convenience, and safety. Marquis Eugene will deliver:
- Vibrant resort-like community designed to engage with public on and off-site: Beautiful, public community center with restaurant, coffee shop, theater, and event sized auditorium.

- All included services: Housekeeping, landscaping, utilities, maintenance, cable and internet.
- Marquis’ Vital Life Foundation: Marquis Companies’ nonprofit, Vital Life Foundation, partners with local and national nonprofits to help residents fulfill their lifelong dreams.
- Safety: Marquis facilities were among first in the nation to complete all COVID-19 vaccinations, with what may be the highest vaccine participation rate – 82 percent of staff and 90 percent of residents. Safety continues to be the number one priority. Staff is provided with all necessary PPE, infection prevention training, monthly in-services, and immediate access to safety protocols.
“We’re listening to what seniors want in their communities,” says Fogg Jr. “And they want what each of us needs to thrive: choices to live our best healthy and vital lives –– no matter what our age.”
