Waverley West is going to have a new neighborhood planned for itself, along with a few other regions in Canada, where most of the homes are going to bedisability-friendly, with provision of arrangements for people on wheelchairs. Approximately 670 out of the total number of 1,225 homes slated to come up in the northwest quadrant of Waverley West would be under the category of 'visitable housing'., which is basically a term for homes that don't need any kind of modification to allow people with disability to move around comfortably. These homes would have wide doorways to accommodate easy movement of wheelchairs, no steps in the front of the house, as well as restrooms on the main floor. This is an appreciable initiative after many advocates for disabled people have been asking city authorities to build more disability -friendly homes. Allen Mankewich, spokesman for the Canadian Centre on Disability Studies, has revealed that this proposed plan has the largest compendium of visitable homes in Canada. In his own words, "This is obviously a great step for the City of Winnipeg." "We try to promote it as something for everyone. Even if you or somebody in your immediate family doesn't utilize it, they may in the future. "It allows people to stay longer in their homes and possibly be less reliant on public health services. "It may cost a little more up front, but pays off in the long run." According to Paul McNeill, regional vice-president of the MMM Group, the consulting firm responsible for creating the Waverley West northwest plan on behalf of the developer, Manitoba Housing, the cost of building is only slightly higher than a regular home, but the benefits are aplenty.
