Exceptional community! My mom and dad have lived there since 2013. The staff treats them with such kindness. It's as if my parents were their parents. Thank you very much, Garrison Green! I am so fond of this place that I volunteer there, showing movies and leading sing-a-longs with my dad.

THE EDWARD

This is an amazing Senior Living Residence! Our mum has definitely found her new best home.

The Edward is the most incredible senior living facility I've ever visited! I'm so glad my grandma chose to live here. All the staff are so patient, personable and attentive, and the facility is beautiful. And the FOOD! OMG. Better than many Calgary restaurants. Once we toured here, there was no competition. It is far and away the most luxurious option.

My wife and I have been watching the construction of the Edward and had opportunity to visit the recently opened sales centre. There is much to admire about the concept and mission. What really struck us is the way the development is integrated into (onto) the c-Space King Edward Art Colony. A thriving and vibrant art community of its own, at the very doorstep. That and a commanding view of the neighbourhood, legacy homes, old trees and a few minutes walk to Marda Loop. Nothing else in the urban area of Calgary can match this location. Looking very forward to seeing the finished construction.
