Omni Quality Living Celebrates Groundbreaking of Presqu’ile Place in Brighton, Ontario

PETERBOROUGH, ONTARIO / July 28, 2025 – Omni Quality Living (“Omni”), a leading provider of long-term care and senior living in Ontario and New Brunswick, proudly celebrated the official groundbreaking of Presqu’ile Place on July 25, 2025. This new 256-bed long-term care home, currently under construction in Brighton, Ontario, marks a significant step forward in expanding access to high-quality, compassionate care for seniors in the region.

Located at 20 Georgina Street, this purpose-built home will be designed to meet modern standards of long-term care, offering a mix of Basic and Private Rooms, along with spacious resident areas and contemporary amenity spaces.

Inspired by the natural beauty and rich heritage of nearby Presqu’ile Provincial Park, the new home is envisioned to reflect the serenity, sense of connection, and community that the park represents for so many.

“Our government is protecting Ontarians and strengthening our long-term care sector by building more homes where Ontario families need them most,” said Natalia Kusendova-Bashta, Minister of Long-Term Care. “Today marks a significant milestone for Northumberland County. When construction is complete, 256 residents will have a modern, comfortable home where they can access the care they need.”

The approximately $100 million development is part of the Province of Ontario’s broader commitment to building 58,000 new and upgraded long-term care beds across the province. In addition to expanding access to care, this project will create new career opportunities in the community and help alleviate pressures on local hospital systems by providing the right care in the right place at the right time.

“Today is an exciting milestone for the community of Brighton and the many families who call this area home,” said David Piccini, MPP for Northumberland—Peterborough South. “Presqu’ile Place represents more than just a building—it’s a commitment to making sure our seniors have the support and surroundings they deserve, close to the people and places they care about.”

Further, Mayor Brian Ostrander commented, “We are grateful to Omni Quality Living and the Province of Ontario for choosing Brighton for their latest long term care development. This project represents more than just bricks and mortar – it’s a commitment to compassionate care, community growth, and the well-being of our residents. We’re proud to welcome this investment in our municipality and are grateful for the collaboration between all levels of government and the private sector that have made it possible.”

Omni is working in partnership with Fotenn Planning + Design, SRM Architects, and VanDel Construction to bring this vision to life. With a design that emphasizes safety, accessibility, infection prevention, and quality of life, Presqu’ile Place will be a vital addition to the region’s health care infrastructure.

“Presqu’ile Place represents the next chapter in our commitment to excellence in seniors’ care,” said Raheem Hirji, President and CEO of Omni Quality Living. “We are proud to invest in this growing community and look forward to building a home that prioritizes dignity, wellness, and belonging for future residents.”

Supporting and investing in the development of this project, Michael Doner, Managing Director & Chief Operating Officer at the Hillcore Group stated, “Hillcore is proud to support Omni Quality Living as they continue to raise the bar for long-term care in Ontario. Presqu’ile Place reflects our shared vision of creating meaningful, community-rooted spaces.”
