We have lived here about a year. What impressed us most is the sense of community. You really do know your neighbours. There is no reason to be alone unless you want to. You can get to know your neighbours at the morning coffee club or at one of the organized or spontaneous activities that happen here. What we enjoy most is sitting in the solarium and being able to walk though the walkway system to most downtown destinations.

Fred Douglas Place is first of all a diverse, vibrant, caring community. One floor of the building is dedicated exclusively for amenities such a library, gym, dining area, greenhouse, pool table, shuffleboard, etc. Numerous resident organized activities take place on this floor. An additional feature which I really appreciate is that we are connected to the downtown Skywalk system which is a blessing, especially during our long cold winters.

Living at Fred Douglas Place gives me easy access to Millennium Library, various University of Winnipeg resources, the Downtown Y, and bus routes. Since moving in over four years ago, I've enjoyed helping with outreach activities such as a little free library, a community garden box, and neighbourhood clean-ups. Underground parking and being connected to the Skywalk system are marvellous.
