What is happening on the site?

As work continues at Providence Village, we are committed to sharing updates with our community on what to expect on our site.

February 16, 2024 – Check out the latest drone footage from our partners capturing their incredible progress at Providence Village. From groundbreaking on Providence Care’s new Providence Manor long-term care home, to new developments at the hospice residence site, we’re thrilled to showcase the transformation taking place at the Village.

February 9, 2024Effective February 12, 2024, Sisters, PVI staff and Motherhouse deliveries will begin using the Phillips Street entrance, located at the very east end of Phillips Street, to access the PVI property. This adjustment is necessary as a portion of the Princess Street entrance will be closed to the back of the property due to ongoing site work for Providence Care’s new Providence Manor building. We anticipate this change will be in effect until late spring/early summer.

September 1, 2023 – Contractors are scheduled to commence work on the west side of the Motherhouse near Fairview Road in early September 2023. The purpose of this phase of construction is to tie in utilities for Providence Care’s Providence Manor redevelopment project, which is expected to open in late 2026. The 320-bed home will be nestled in green space in a community-like setting, with a multi-faceted services hub designed to honour the 160-year legacy of Providence Care Founders, the Sisters of Providence of St. Vincent de Paul.

August 31, 2023 – Environmental contractors are scheduled to commence work at the east end of Phillips Street mid-late September 2023.

This 10-suite residence will be accessed via Phillips Street. Work will take place from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and the estimated duration for this phase of construction is September to December 2023. Flagmen will be provided as required to maintain traffic flow.

March 7, 2023 – Providence Care has shared an update on the Providence Manor redevelopment project ramping up again after a necessary pause. The long-term care home redevelopment project was put on hold in February 2022 as pandemic-related inflation significantly affected the cost of construction. The Ministry of Long-Term Care committed additional funding to support the project and it is now ready to move forward without impact to project scope.

February 22, 2023 – Site preparation and construction activity will begin at Providence Village Inc. at 1200 Princess Street on March 6.
