Exciting Developments in Senior Living Options
In a significant move aimed at enhancing living conditions for seniors, EMD-Batimo is set to invest $146 million in two new rental complexes. These projects are tailored specifically to individuals aged 55 and older, promising vibrant and fulfilling lifestyles for their future residents.
Introducing Lib Living: A New Standard for Seniors
The new Lib rental complexes, offering communities designed for active seniors, will be established in Pointe-Claire and Mont-Saint-Hilaire. These developments mark a promising expansion in Québec’s housing market, focusing on active, social living for retired individuals.
Project Locations and Features
The Pointe-Claire location will feature 205 rental units on Hymus Boulevard. Named Lib Hymus, this 10-storey building will offer a mix of 1-bedroom to 3-bedroom condos, with amenities that promise both comfort and elegance. The design incorporates natural light and high-quality materials, setting a new benchmark for senior living.
In Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Lib Mont-Saint-Hilaire will provide 132 rental condos in a stunning 4-storey building situated with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. This location has been strategically chosen for its access to shopping and abundant green spaces, creating a tranquil environment for its future residents.
What Makes Lib Living Different?
This innovative concept is all about addressing the unique needs of young retirees who are not quite ready for traditional senior residences. The Lib developments emphasize an active lifestyle by including common spaces designed for social interaction. Residents can look forward to lounges, gyms, swimming pools, and community kitchens that foster connections with family and friends.
Environmental and Economic Considerations
Sustainability is at the core of this development. EMD-Batimo assures compliance with environmental standards by emphasizing energy efficiency, optimal air quality, and the incorporation of natural elements around the buildings. This approach not only provides aesthetically pleasing environments but also contributes to the well-being of the residents.
Furthermore, the construction phase is expected to create approximately 200 jobs over a 20-month period. Once completed, these complexes will significantly contribute to the local economies of Pointe-Claire and Mont-Saint-Hilaire with substantial annual revenues.
Message from the Leadership
"We are thrilled to announce these projects that cater to the lifestyle of our residents while promoting community engagement and sustainability. Our approach is not just about providing housing; it’s about creating a vibrant community that feels like home," said Francis Charron, President of EMD-Batimo Group.
The Future of EMD-Batimo
Since 1994, EMD-Batimo has been a prominent figure in the Québec construction and real estate sector, with a strong focus on diverse living options including multi-residential and retirement environments. With over 10,000 units developed or currently under construction, the company maintains its commitment to integrating sustainable practices in all its projects, which is reflected in the Lib living communities.
