Mayor and Council are pleased to announce the advancement of a Senior Housing Project in the Town of Smooth Rock Falls.

The proposed development will consist of a 20-unit independent living facility for seniors, to be constructed on Catherine Street. This initiative represents a significant step forward in addressing the growing need for appropriate and accessible housing options within the community.

The project will feature twenty (20) two-bedroom units designed to support independent living for residents. The development will also include shared indoor and outdoor common areas aimed at promoting social engagement and an active lifestyle.

Descon Construction Ltd., along with financial consultant Dave Butler and planning consultant Keith Harriman, has been engaged under a design-build approach to deliver the project.

The Catherine Street location was selected for its proximity to essential services and amenities, providing convenience and accessibility for future residents.
