In 1972 Lou began thinking about making it possible for his guests to become year round residents. The
approval and design process took an enormous
amount of time and energy, but in 1985, the community of
Green Briar was founded at the eastern end of the
property
along with an 18 hole golf course.
Green Briar was an instant success and recognized as Canada’s first adult lifestyle community in a genuine
resort setting. Over an 11 year period, 497 homes were meticulously constructed at Green Briar, as people
recognized the uncompromising quality and outstanding value.
During this time, Lou’s sons and nephew also joined the family business, bringing with them the same
amount of energy and thoughtfulness that made the business so successful. The result is a truly remarkable
team that has created an elegant community that embodies sound management principles, astute planning
and a commitment to uncompromising quality.
