This innovative project, which opened in May 2021, brings together housing and amenities for Mission’s seniors community. The six storey building features an 11,000 square foot seniors centre with multi-purpose rooms, a kitchen, dining hall, billiards and games room, offices and community space as well as 74 studio, one and two bedroom housing units.
The project is located on land provided by the District of Mission. Terra worked with MASH to successfully apply for capital and ongoing operating funding under the 2018 Building BC: Community Housing Fund. The Mission Foundation also contributed $500,000 towards the capital cost of building the Community Centre, an amount generously donated through the Marilyn Boswyk Memorial Fund. Marilyn was well known in the community; she and her family have been passionate supporters of education, the arts and seniors. The new building is named in her honour.
