MP Ted Falk announces second phase construction of Bridgepark Manor in Steinbach.

The housing project will feature 29 one-bedroom and 21 two-bedroom units.  Enhanced services will be available to residents, including two meals per day served in the shared dining area, planned recreational and social activities and weekly housekeeping services.

“Assisted living and supportive care facilities allow our seniors to remain active and stay in Steinbach close to family and friends,” said Steinbach Mayor Chris Goertzen. “Steinbach’s elderly contribute greatly to our community and the new phase at Bridgepark Manor will help to keep more seniors living in Steinbach.”

This three-storey building will be built adjacent to the existing 52-unit Bridgepark Manor, which was completed in 2012. The kitchen and other amenity areas will be shared by residents of both buildings.
