CALGARY, AB – On March 23rd, 2023, Homes by Avi – Group of Companies, Avi Construction broke ground on their second project in Livingston, Maverick at Livingston. (See attached photos)
Consisting of 1 and 2 bedrooms units with den options in a four-storey building, Maverick is where lifestyle meets design in Calgary’s North master-planned community. Featuring an owner’s lounge, walking distance to the 35,000 sq ft Livingston Hub, and an underground parkade with a dog wash, residents can embrace convenience at their doorstep.
"We're thrilled to be continuing our success story with another building in Livingston," said Charron Ungar, CEO of Homes by Avi. “This community sets the bar extremely high for developers in Calgary and across North America. We value the trust that our purchasers have in us. Future and current Livingston residents will be nothing short of impressed when they experience Maverick at Livingston. Our product line brings architectural diversity and affordability to this highly sought-after community, all while maintaining the unparalleled standard of quality that Homes by Avi is known for.”
"Celebrating this milestone with Homes by Avi is monumental for Jack James High School," said Jennifer Gorkoff, Principal of Jack James High School. "This program has impacted thousands of students and has created opportunities for them to develop and apply skills that have resulted in industry employment. In addition, this program has instilled a sense of pride in our students, which is invaluable. They become connected to our community and feel proud when they see the finished product of their hard work and dedication, a new home for a family. We are incredibly grateful for our relationship with the Avi family and all they have done to support our students and construction program."
The highlight of the event was unveiling a bursary program dedicating a portion of the funds to Jack James students as a result of a 5-year commitment of $1 Million to the School of Construction at SAIT and NAIT.
"Homes by Avi has been in a unique and dedicated partnership with Jack James High School for 25 years. As a homebuilder in the City of Calgary, it is our responsibility to support our industry with future tradespeople, "said Vered Amir, Sponsorship and Community Engagement with Homes by Avi. "Education in this field is vital in providing a safe work site and a well-constructed home. So, it is, with this sense of responsibility, we are announcing a $1 Million contribution to the School of Construction at SAIT and NAIT over the course of 5 years. Our partnership with the students of Jack James will expand into their post-secondary as they will now have the opportunity to advance their skills & education through a bursary award program in celebration of Homes by Avi's 45th year."
Experiential learning is one of the best ways to transfer knowledge and gain skills. Jack James students now have the advantage of learning skills during their 3-year high school journey.
"Through the relationship we build with the students, they see a finished product. They see how every trade interacts with framing," said Jeremy Pigeon, Assistant Site Superintendent with Homes by Avi. "To go through three years of high school, learning how to build a portion of a house with another group of students and learning how to work together as a team to accomplish a goal, will allow the students to go into any trade and contribute with confidence."
"This past summer, I was able to secure a carpenter apprenticeship which allowed me to work on projects like The Minto Era," said Kyle Stewart, a grade 12 student. "I'm graduating next summer, and I have my eyes set on SAIT to continue my education in a trade that I now love, thanks to the skills that I received from my teacher Mike Colman through building an actual home with Homes by Avi.”
This year, the home featuring the "Leonard" floorplan is located in the community of Walden, with profits from the sale going back into the program to help fund future years. The homeowners received the keys to their home last week, where a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held prior to the homeowner's possession so that the students could see their hard work firsthand.

Building 1 of Maverick at Livingston was completed in 2018 and amazing stories from the residents continue to pour in. Building 2 sold out in Fall 2022 after receiving a successful sales launch in January that same year and is projected to be completed by Summer 2024. Building 3 is currently 80% sold out and is anticipated to be completed by Fall 2024.
“Homes by Avi sets ourselves apart by providing an inclusive community lifestyle that pays homage to the natural prairie elements in the surrounding landscape. No details were overlooked in the preparation of this development. From the use of modern building materials to the unassumingly simplistic forms, the project exudes contemporary style. Punch-out balconies with metal cladding and metal-framed balconies with tempered glass add an additional level of sophistication to each of the three structures,” said Ungar.
Buyers will find a vast range of amenities throughout the community, that make it a true neighbourhood. Livingston is already a fast-growing community, with quick and easy access to restaurants, entertainment, shopping, future LRT Green Line off of 144 Ave NE, and major roads like Stoney Trail. 250 acres of open space, parks and prairies mean plenty of room for unique outdoor activities. The off-leash dog park, bike pump track, and three parks (equipped with accessibility features) are just a small list of things to do in Livingston. Residents of Maverick are uniquely connected to access these sought-after amenities year-round, so be sure to snap up one of these remaining units today.
