The Good Samaritan Society is proud to announce the upcoming West Village Project, a transformative new continuing care facility that will redefine the standard of compassionate, person-centered care in Edmonton’s Lewis Estates community.

This development reflects our unwavering commitment to innovation, inclusion, and community well-being. In partnership with PCL Construction, one of Canada’s most trusted builders, we are bringing this vision to life through collaboration, expertise, and shared values that place people first. The facility was designed by START Architecture Inc., whose multidisciplinary approach blends building science, technology, and art to create spaces that are functional, inclusive, and deeply connected to community.

About the Project

The West Village will feature 280 continuing care suites thoughtfully designed to support adults with complex care needs. The seven-storey facility will embrace a “small-home” model, creating 20 individual households, each with 14 private rooms, a kitchen, and inviting common areas that promote connection, comfort, and dignity.

At the heart of this project is a commitment to cultural inclusion. The design intentionally incorporates culturally appropriate spaces to support Indigenous residents, families, and staff, honouring traditions and creating an environment rooted in respect and belonging.

The main floor will host a variety of resident-focused amenities, including community seniors’ programs, a rehabilitation gym, commercial kitchen, restaurant, general store, and hair salon, alongside administrative and support areas that ensure operational excellence.

Together with PCL Construction, The Good Samaritan Society is building more than a facility, we’re building a village of care, compassion, and community where every individual feels at home.
