An inspiring living environment for the next chapter of your life<\/b><\/p>\n
Beauport, September 29, 2021 \u2014 Le Floril\u00e8ge<\/a> is a new residence for seniors in Beauport that is modern, friendly, and safe. It will open in fall\u00a02022. While the official groundbreaking ceremony was held today, construction on the project began last spring.<\/span><\/p>\n Real estate developer and promoter <\/span>EMD-Batimo<\/span><\/a> is leading this major project in partnership with <\/span>Chartwell<\/span><\/a>, which will operate the facility as part of their partnership established in 2014. This complex is much needed in a region where over one fifth of the population (21.6%) is 65 or older.<\/span><\/p>\n Le Floril\u00e8ge will be located at the intersection of Blanche-Lamontagne and Jean-Le-Sueur, near the F\u00e9lix-Leclerc highway and behind the Beauport Golf Club. The six-storey complex will include 301 rental apartments for independent residents, and 36 care units for individuals with physical or cognitive impairments. From studios to 3-bedroom apartments, units will range in size from 515 to 1,285 square feet. The tax credit for home-support services is available to residents aged 70 and over.<\/span><\/p>\n The estimated investment value of this project is close to $100\u00a0million. Up to 150 workers will be active on the site during the 18-month construction phase. Once open, Le Floril\u00e8ge is expected to create 55 new jobs and generate hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual revenue for the city of Beauport.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cLe Floril\u00e8ge will contribute to Beauport\u2019s vitality, while meeting the needs of Quebec City\u2019s ageing population,\u2019 said Mr.\u00a0Stevens M\u00e9lan\u00e7on, president of the Beauport borough. \u201cThe residential complex has been carefully designed by experienced teams to provide seniors with a welcoming and safe living environment. This new asset will contribute to Quebec\u2019s great quality of life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n A wide range of amenities<\/b><\/p>\n The various amenities include exclusive retailers (a pharmacy, hair salon and bistro), a swimming pool, a golf simulator, three lounges, a billiards room, a gym, a movie theatre and a courtyard with a garden and a games area. There will also be indoor and outdoor parking, and a terrace adjacent to the comfortable dining room overlooking a park and pond.<\/span><\/p>\n The rent includes five appliances, electricity, hot water, cable television, telephone, air conditioning, and high-speed internet. It also includes 24\/7 security services, on-site nurses, an emergency call system and access to a generous programme of complimentary physical and cultural activities.<\/span><\/p>\n The ventilation and air exchange system in the apartments will ensure good air quality and a healthy environment. In addition, the building is positioned to maximize natural sunlight. The nearby shops are within walking distance, encouraging residents to stay active by choosing to walk rather than drive.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Friendly and family atmosphere<\/b><\/p>\n \u201cOur goal is to build a community to overcome social isolation,\u201d says Francis Charron, president of Batimo and vice-president of EMD Construction. \u201cWe designed Le Floril\u00e8ge with this in mind. For example, all the shared spaces are located together on the ground floor. They are also spacious, modular, and multifunctional, but can be divided as needed to create more intimate spaces for smaller groups.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n An information session will take place on 13 October at the Ambassadeur Qu\u00e9bec hotel. Registration for this event is now open on the website. Please note that the rental office at 3350 Lucien-Godbout Street is set to open in October 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0*Source: Altus Survey, March 2019<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" From left to right: Jonathan Bisson, architect, Bisson-Associ\u00e9, Francis Charron, president, Batimo\u2014vice-president, EMD Construction, Fran\u00e7ois Audet, business partner, Stevens M\u00e9lan\u00e7on, president of the Beauport borough, Christian Duquette, political assistant to Julie Vignola, M.
