Milliken Developments, Senior Community Living
About us
Since 2010 Milliken Development’s sole focus has been the creation and expansion of premium senior living communities. Milliken, often in partnership with Amica Senior Lifestyles (wholly owned by the Ontario Teachers Pension Plan), provides boutique, very high quality – Assisted Living and Memory Care residences for seniors. Recently we have been adding Independent Living to create a Senior’s Continuum of Care.
Since 2013 Milliken Developments has been partnered with Amica Senior Lifestyles to provide premier seniors communities. Milliken utilizes its extensive real estate development knowledge to acquire land to design and construct new communities, while Amica manages these communities as Canada’s premier operator. Milliken and Amica share long-term ownership.
Milliken’s first senior living community, Maison Britannia, opened in SW Calgary in December, 2013. Amica Lions Gate, previously Maison Senior Living, West Vancouver, opened in November, 2016. Several more seniors’ developments are in the construction and planning stages, including communities for about 375 seniors in Central Victoria, BC. We look forward to bringing our considerable development experience to create best in class seniors’ communities in select markets in Western Canada.
Prior to 2010 Milliken Development’s business focus was the creation of unique, inclusive, full city block urban mixed use communities in central Seattle, Washington and downtown Bellevue, Washington. We completed five such award winning urban developments at a total value today of about $750 million.

Our Projects
Amica Lions Gate
West Vancouver, BC
Phase 1 of Amica Lions Gate, formerly Maison Senior Living, West Vancouver, opened in November, 2016. This senior’s community has raised the bar considerably for the quality of senior’s care residences in Canada.
Located prominently at the corner of Taylor Way and Keith Road in West Vancouver, Phase 1 of Amica Lions Gate provides a home for 90 seniors with Assisted Living and Memory (Alzheimer’s ) Care needs in a luxurious and carefully planned residence that has become very well-known and regarded in West Vancouver.
Amica Jubilee House
Victoria, BC
Amica Jubilee House opened December 2023. Located at the corner of Fort Street and Richmond Road, this residence provides 125 suites of Assisted Living and Memory Care.
Situated across the street from the Royal Jubilee Hospital and in close proximity to Oak Bay, James Bay, Cadboro Bay and Downtown Victoria, this residence is the premier location for seniors in need of high-quality care.
Amenities and services include chef prepared meals provided through 5 dining rooms, a bistro, theatre, salon and spa, games library, greenhouse, along with a beautifully manicured outdoor garden.
Amica Jubilee House Expansion
Victoria, BC
The Amica Jubilee House Expansion is expected to open in 2027. This addition will be focused on Independent Living, making Amica Jubilee House a true Continuum of Care (Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care).
Situated immediately to the West of Phase 1, which opened in December 2023, all units will have kitchens so residents can maintain their independence. Residents will also be able to access the amenities in Phase 1 through a covered and heated walkway. This Independent Living addition will allow residents to age in place, without any concern about being relocated due to changing physical and cognitive needs.
The New Amica Douglas House
Victoria, BC
Amica Douglas House is in James Bay, at 50 Douglas Street, across the road from Beacon Hill Park and the Mile Zero Monument. Originally built in 1966, Amica Douglas House is a 4-storey independent living facility that currently provides 102 suites.
The current residence is 2 separate buildings that were connected years ago. The proposal is to replace the existing Douglas House buildings with a modern 6 storey senior’s community which will focus exclusively on Memory Care and Assisted Living residents.
