The Mikisew Group and Paragon Living have announced plans for Indigenous-led housing development in Edmonton that will include 180 affordable housing units and more than 400 homes overall.
Mikisew Commons will feature 438 residential units, including 180 non-market affordable units aimed at addressing housing affordability challenges in the city.
The development will include barrier-free housing, with 11 per cent of units designed to be fully accessible and affordable for residents with mobility challenges.
According to Mikisew, the project reflects the First Nation’s commitment to supporting members who live in Edmonton, where many have relocated for education, employment, health care and other opportunities.
A completion date for Mikisew Commons has not been announced.
Mikisew Commons is being developed through a partnership involving Mikisew Group, the economic development arm of the Mikisew Cree First Nation in Northern Alberta, and Edmonton-based Paragon Living.
