Valley Park Manor finally demolished, soon back up for sale

The long-emptied Valley Park Manor, which has sat empty in Red Deer’s Riverside Meadows area since 2010, has been demolished.

Work began in the fall with reclamation and final stages of demolition ongoing. It should be finished by March 2024, Alberta Health Services says.

“Demolition and remediation work has been supported by a $2 million rural revitalization grant. Once work is complete, the property will be put back on the market later this year,” AHS says in a statement.

“Since the closure of Valley Park Manor, maintenance costs at the property have decreased from $50,000 per year down to approximately $5,000 per year as utilities were shut off and ground maintenance work like snow clearing minimized.”
