Grandview Gardens, a gated Manufactured Home Community, was created by Gary King for a well located 156 acre farmland site that was annexed for future development by the Town of Strathmore. Ultimately, Gary re-zoned the land with unanimous approval by the Mayor and Council. This “shovel ready” project consists of 1,227 Manufactured Home units on 147 acres (the largest in Canada), 4.5 acres of Assisted / Independent Living comprising of 181 units and 4.5 acres of Commercial. There is also 11.67 acres of MR land allocated for 500 RV Storage units.

Grandview Gardens residents may enjoy golf privileges at The Lakes of Muirfield which is only 15 minutes away. In addition, it is strategically located just 2 blocks to the main Regional Hospital and 4 blocks to the relatively new major Shopping Center on the TransCanada Highway.

With 10,000 retirees coming on stream every day, Forbes Magazine calls it: “Surviving The Greatest Retirement Crisis In American History”. “CREB now”, the Calgary Real Estate Board - news from the industry experts - says - “… some estimates have the local senior population nearly doubling during the next decade … concerns as to whether Calgary is properly prepared to handle growing senior populations ... affordable housing is a vital part to aging in Calgary ... as Calgary’s population continues to increase, the demand for affordable housing will continue to grow and the gap in the housing system is likely to widen”. The concept and magnitude of Grandview Gardens puts it in a position to help alleviate this senior housing crisis as well as other segments of society.

In addition to the Seniors Concept at Grandview Gardens, research has shown that younger couples, single parent families and starter families would not only find the affordable price point very appealing but also the location. One block south of Grandview is Brent Blvd., the road on which all of the schools are located - Elementary, Jr. High and High School.

Thus, each phase in Grandview could also incorporate distinct areas with separate entrances that set apart the younger folks and families from seniors, thereby keeping separation and uniformity in design and lifestyle appeal.

The focus of Grandview Gardens is “fast, year round indoor construction, at affordable prices that cannot be matched without compromising quality and design.”
