A path for growth
Calgary takes steps to addressing housing and infrastructure challenges
A new development in the northwest community of Varsity will provide affordable housing for Calgarians looking for a home of their own.
Attainable Homes Calgary Corp. (AHCC) and Lexington Development Management have joined forces to create the 26-unit project, made up of both attainable and market-priced units on the corner of Shaganappi Trail and Varsity Drive N.W.
"It's a great spot. It's near the university. It's near shopping centres. It's a great location," said Ward 1 Coun. Ward Sutherland. "It's very rare that we actually get to have these types of land even available, so the community's been very supportive. They voted on it, they support the project and so do I."

Attainable Calgary
Attainable Homes Calgary Corp. president David Watson talks new developments and more
Buying a home just got a lot easier for some Calgarians.
Local builder Partners Development Group has committed 10 per cent of its upcoming multi-family homes developments to Attainable Homes Calgary Corp. (AHCC). AHCC is a non-profit organization delivering entry-level homes for Calgarians caught in the affordability gap. Those who qualify can get into the market with a mortgage pre-approval and only $2,000 down.
"We work with AHCC as a way to give back to Calgary, helping more middle-income Calgarians get into home ownership through this socially responsible program," said Greg Gutek, Partners Development Group president and founder. "We're looking at our future Calgary developments to see how we can adjust the design and density to include more attainably-priced homes."
