Context from Civida.

Background​

Located at 11503 – 41 Avenue in the Royal Gardens neighbourhood, Petrolia is owned by the City of Edmonton. Civida managed the Petrolia townhomes property on behalf of the City of Edmonton, which included 12 buildings, with 70-units. Following an assessment of the property in Summer 2022, Civida, in partnership with the City of Edmonton, undertook an investigative process which provided valuable insights.
It was determined that the community had reached the end of its useful life. With tenant safety being our priority, the decision was made to re-house tenants to facilitate a thorough evaluation of the complex and further planning. Civida worked with impacted tenants and families, supporting them in moving to alternative housing.

The Plan​

Planning has been ongoing, and the City of Edmonton has collaborated with Civida to conduct a feasibility and zoning analysis study to get the site shovel ready for a new and improved affordable housing development.
Edmonton City Council approved funding for demolition in the fall 2023 budget adjustment, the first step toward creating new housing for people who need it.

In preparation for the site’s renewal, Civida made every effort to salvage materials from the older buildings for donation and reuse at other properties. With neighborhood safety in mind, windows and doors remained intact until the City of Edmonton could take over the site.

The site is currently being prepared by the City of Edmonton to make way for a new, diversified, affordable housing community.
We remain cognizant of the impact this situation has had on the community. Tenants’ and community well-being remain our priority, and we continue to work diligently to provide safe and affordable homes for Edmontonians. We are committed to keeping the community updated on our plans, as this information becomes available, and appreciate the patience and understanding of the community.

Wait what?! You’re so right…..just assumed it was the same project…..what’s the likelihood of 2 projects being across the street from each other……

That's fair, both lots of have sat vacant for so long who would think that both are in motion now!
What a change it'll be though for both sides to be developed!

Has anybody heard anything about this project?

The whole block besides the A&W is under this application. It would be transformational on this site, but I hope it's decent.

This is apparently it. Doesn't appear to be much to look at, but it's a bunch of people in an empty lot near transit, so there's that!
