Affordable housing brings community connection, purpose, and opportunity

Livingston is a neighbourhood built on the idea of connection and inclusivity. Our slogan, Coming Together, reflects the belief that communities are strongest when they support people at every stage of life—from babies to seniors.

We’re excited to announce that Silvera for Seniors has begun construction on a new affordable housing development right here in Livingston. The project, called Livingston Terrace, will provide independent living apartments for 42 low-income seniors, with a potential second phase adding 21 more units.

This is more than just a housing project—it’s a meaningful step toward creating a more inclusive and caring community.

Why Affordable Seniors Housing Matters

Many seniors in Calgary face financial challenges in their later years, especially if they live alone or rely solely on government pensions. Rent, food, medication, and transportation can quickly add up—making it difficult to maintain a high quality of life.

Livingston Terrace will give these individuals a safe, accessible, and affordable place to live—right in the heart of a vibrant, welcoming neighbourhood.

A Win for the Entire Community

Welcoming seniors into the community isn’t just the right thing to do—it also brings lasting value to Livingston as a whole.

Here’s how:

  • Seniors contribute to community spirit: Older adults often volunteer more, support local businesses, and are active in keeping their homes and streets looking their best.
  • Job creation: Silvera for Seniors currently employs over 400 Calgarians. The addition of Livingston Terrace opens doors for new local jobs, from entry-level roles to leadership positions.
  • Social impact: Providing affordable housing helps reduce isolation and improves quality of life—not just for seniors, but for everyone around them.

The Ongoing Need for Seniors Housing in Calgary

Affordable housing is a city-wide need—but seniors are often overlooked. That’s why organizations like Silvera for Seniors are so important. Their work helps ensure older Calgarians are not left behind.

The arrival of Livingston Terrace reflects a growing recognition that everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to live—regardless of age or income.
