St. Elizabeth Village is undergoing a groundbreaking transformation into Ontario’s first resort-style lifestyle community, redefining senior living with vibrant social spaces and immersive design. Inspired by Disney’s Boardwalk, this $800 million redevelopment introduces a small-town atmosphere, complete with a lively town square, restaurants, and boutique shops.

Master-planned by South Mountain Inc., the entertainment design firm behind Universal Studios Florida and Canada’s Wonderland, the village is a seamless blend of themed placemaking and everyday living. The first phase, designed in collaboration with Reinders + Associates Ltd., includes:

• A 170-unit life lease apartment building designed for active 55+ living.
• A 10,000 sq. ft. amenity hub with a pool, fitness and yoga areas, dance spaces, and multi-purpose rooms.
• The Upper Mill Pond residences, thoughtfully positioned around one of the community’s serene water features.

Guided by resident feedback, the reimagined St. Elizabeth Village balances nostalgia with modern convenience, ensuring a strong sense of place while embracing a fresh, resort-like ambience. As this visionary development comes to life, it sets a new standard for lifestyle-driven senior communities in Canada.
