Edmonton, Alberta, Dec. 10, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ONE Properties, a dynamic real estate development company and Revera Inc., a leading owner, operator, developer and investor in the senior living sector, are pleased to announce construction is underway at the first project in the companies’ joint venture partnership to develop new retirement communities in key urban markets across Canada. The 290-suite, 23-storey, best-in-class senior living residence will be named Revera Glenora Park Retirement Residence, reflecting its pride of place as part of Edmonton’s Glenora community.
“This stunning location offers the perfect backdrop for what will be an exceptional new option in Edmonton for older adults who are looking for an elegant, welcoming environment in which to live and age in place,” says Thomas G. Wellner, President and CEO of Revera Inc. “We are delighted to partner with ONE Properties on Glenora Park, which is an exciting addition to our expanding portfolio in a province that is playing an important role in Revera’s long-term growth strategy.”
The companies’ joint venture combines ONE Properties’ development expertise with Revera’s extensive operational experience to design the project and create outstanding, customer-centred senior living choices. As co-owners of Glenora Park, ONE Properties will act as the developer and will oversee the development’s construction, while Revera, which owns and/or operates 13 retirement residences and seven long term care homes in Alberta, will manage its marketing and operations.
“Glenora Park’s scenic location overlooking the river valley combined with contemporary suites and common areas creates a unique addition to the seniors’ housing market in Edmonton,” says Darren Durstling, President and CEO of ONE Properties. “We’re excited to break ground on the next phase of this development, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Revera to bring similar products to other key urban markets.”
