Housing on the way for Lethbridge seniors

The governments of Alberta and Canada are bringing more mixed-income housing to Lethbridge-area seniors.

The new development includes 64 housing units addressing the need for more affordable seniors homes in the City of Lethbridge. The units will incorporate a mixed-income model, allowing residents to pay rent at a rate that makes sense for their individual situation.

Located across from a park, the new homes include on-site supports for the residents who should be moving in by early spring 2022.

The total project will create about 91 jobs.

Federal Minister of Families, Children and Social Development and Minister responsible for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) Ahmed Hussen and Alberta Seniors and Housing Minister Josephine Pon celebrated the groundbreaking for the new facility. The governments of Alberta and Canada provided $3.4 million for the project.
