Nature to City Gateway
79 Valleyview Road brings 39 new homes to the edge of the Richard Pierpoint Park trails system in St. Catharines. All of them are low-carbon, mixed-income rental homes, transforming an underutilized surface parking lot into a vibrant, livable space that enriches the surrounding neighbourhood with community gardens and outdoor gathering spaces.
The low-rise building design includes a series of three-storey walk-up homes with a mix of one- and two-bedroom units, including accessible ground-floor units.
Located within easy reach of transit, parks, trails, and local public amenities, 79 Valleyview Road is designed for the 2050 climate, offering low-energy, resilient, and comfortable homes.
