Rocky View Foundation is announcing the opening of Abrio Place. The new seniors residence provides affordable housing options for elderly residents.
“We are thrilled to announce that Abrio Place is open for business”, said Carol Borschneck, CAO at Rocky View Foundation. “This project involved converting the former Hampton Inn and Suites on East Lake Avenue to a 93-unit seniors’ lodge.”
Phase 1 of the project is complete, and residents are settling into their new home, Borschneck went on to explain. This phase involved building a commercial kitchen, dining room, safety upgrades, laundry rooms, and modifications to resident rooms.
Phase 2 is the development of the solarium, Maker’s Shop, and landscaping. Outdoor amenities will include a walking path, communal gardens, a gazebo, and outdoor recreation spaces and equipment. Subject to funding, phase 2 will be constructed over the next 10 months.
The Rocky View Foundation will be scheduling a grand opening ceremony to honour our many donors and funding partners.
“With their support, we were able to develop 93 lodge units at less than one-third the cost of new construction,” said Borschneck.
