LaCaille Group takes its name from La Caille On The Bow Restaurant, which became known as one of Calgary’s most respected fine dining establishments since being acquired in 1985 by Mr. Peter Livaditis.
Located in the heart of beautiful downtown Calgary and overlooking the scenic Bow River and Prince’s Island Park, La Caille On The Bow Restaurant has hosted numerous special events and occasions over its 25-year history.
Mr. Livaditis transformed LaCaille into a real estate development company and along with his partner Al Schmidt have build numerous residential condominium towers, neighborhood shopping centers and have designed many more towers, plazas and even an entire urban village to be build within the city!
LaCaille is synonymous with quality and character. No two projects look alike and the portfolio of LaCaille’s accomplishments is as impressive as its transformation from an upscale restaurant to a major and highly respected real estate development company. With many new and exciting developments on the horizon, LaCaille is looking forward to further enhancing Calgary lifestyles and the skyline!
