In Canada, several vacant shopping malls are being transformed into senior housing communities, giving new life to underused commercial spaces. Former food courts are being repurposed as shared dining halls, while retail areas become apartments, clinics, and activity centers. This adaptive reuse tackles two big challenges at once: empty malls and the growing need for affordable senior housing, creating walkable, community-focused living spaces for older adults.
