Gregory D. Smith

Gregory D. Smith is a leading innovator in the senior housing industry. As president and CEO, he oversees all aspects of the company and is actively involved in operations, development and growth. Greg has deep experience managing businesses that seamlessly incorporate residential, hospitality and health care facets. In his many years in real estate, he has developed a wide range of property brands, ranging from office buildings to full-service hotels.

In 2004, he created Maplewood Senior Living, with residences in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Ohio. In 2012, Greg and his team saw a new need that wasn’t being met: a very specific demographic was seeking an even higher level of luxury senior living — this time in an urban environment. Compelled to create a solution to fulfill this need, Greg and his team envisioned Inspῑr, a sister brand to Maplewood Senior Living. A native of Massachusetts, Greg studied marketing and finance at Bentley University. He is a member of the board of directors of the Alzheimer’s Association, New York City Chapter, and currently resides with his family in Fairfield County, Connecticut.
