Christenson Group of CompaniesWorking Together Toward Success
Christenson Developments
The Christenson Group of Companies has evolved into an efficient and complementary team working towards a common goal—providing thoughtful, intelligent housing to handle the growing demands of active adult living, retirement communities, and seniors housing. Christenson Developments provides the vision. Its objective is to develop the concept, find the land, and work with government to get approval and proceed.
Can-Der Construction
Can-Der Construction takes the vision and turns it into reality. As the construction management arm of The Christenson Group of Companies, Can-Der has left its mark on Edmonton and Alberta by creating solid, elegant retirement homes in the form of Villa Bungalows and Estate Condos as well as intelligent, inviting senior housing.
Christenson Communities
Once a leased project has been completed, Christenson Communities is the heart-beat that brings it to life. Vision and construction create a house, but compassion makes it a home. With a combination of old fashioned caring and respect, combined with contemporary supportive services, the Communities staff imbues senior housing with a rich quality of life.
