About Co-operatives
There are many kinds of co-operatives: food co-ops, co-op daycare’s, credit unions, retail co-ops, worker co-ops and housing co-ops. Any group of people can form a co-operative.
Welcome to Preston Heights Co-op
Founded in 1985, Preston Heights Housing Co-operative has been, and continues to be, a diverse community of people that choose to live and work together to provide everyone with safe, affordable and healthy housing.
Preston Heights is a non-profit housing co-op located in Cambridge. We have 40 units located in 9 row townhouse buildings which include 7 two bedroom units (1 wheelchair accessible) and 33 3 bedroom units (1 wheelchair accessible and 4 semi-accessible).
The Co-operative is member run and governed through a volunteer Board of Directors elected by the membership. The Board of Directors manages the day to day business of the Co-operative and is supported by member run committees.
Nestled along forests of green at the end of a quiet crescent, Preston Heights is just a short walk to Riverside Park where your family will enjoy walking trails, playgrounds, picnic areas, baseball diamonds, tennis courts, soccer fields and a skateboard park. The Co-op is minutes to the 401 and all major expressways. Preston Heights is also conveniently located to Public and Catholic schools from JK –Grade 12 and one block from Preston Heights Community Centre.
