Ladies and Gentlemen:
Brookdale Senior Living Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
hereby requests, pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as

the undersigned at (312) 977-3673 and that such effectiveness also be confirmed
in writing.
The Company hereby acknowledges:
o should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority,
declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from
taking any action with respect to the filing;
o the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated
authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company
from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the
disclosure in the filing; and
o the Company may not assert this action as defense in any proceeding
initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws
of the United States.
Very truly yours,
