New Vista Society is proud to partner with the Province of British Columbia on a new housing development that will bring 98 affordable rental homes for seniors to Maple Ridge.

Located at 22534/22548/22556 Royal Crescent, the project will provide safe, secure housing for seniors with low to moderate incomes who can live independently. The homes are expected to be ready in 2027.

“We are very happy to begin this important project for seniors in Maple Ridge, as it will provide affordable housing to those in need for decades to come,” said Darin Froese, CEO, New Vista Society. “Thanks to the minister and her team at BC Housing for their support and vision.”

The Province, through BC Housing, is contributing $16.1 million from the Community Housing Fund, along with $34.9 million in construction financing.

The development will feature a mix of one- and two-bedroom units designed with accessibility and aging in place in mind, as well as common areas and amenities to foster social connection and reduce isolation.

“Seniors have helped shape our communities and it is important that we continue to support them,” said Christine Boyle, Minister of Housing and Municipal Affairs. “These new homes coming to Maple Ridge will provide many seniors with affordable, secure housing options that meet their needs. We are seeing real progress, and our government is committed to continue helping seniors age with dignity and stability in the community they call home.”

Since 2017, the Province has more than 93,600 homes delivered or underway, including more than 500 in Maple Ridge.

“These new homes are a welcome addition to the Maple Ridge community,” said Lisa Beare, MLA for Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows. “Seniors in the region, especially those with fixed incomes, face challenges in finding affordable places to rent. With these new homes, we are making sure they have access to safe, affordable homes that meet their needs and allow them to stay connected to their community.”

New Vista will share details about how to apply for housing closer to project completion.
