Arvida Lincoln retirement community development officially named

As the first slab of concrete is poured at Arvida’s Lincoln development, the official name of the new Living Well Community has been announced – Arvida Lincoln Plains.

The name was chosen after extensive research into the region by the Arvida team, valuable stakeholder feedback, team polling, and brainstorming sessions.  

With more than thirty years of experience in the retirement village sector, Leigh Tabak has been named the new Arvida Lincoln Plains Village Manager. Having previously been in the role of Village Manager at Arvida Park Lane community in Christchurch for four years, Leigh is excited to help build a new retirement community and explains the meaning behind the name.

“It really speaks to the vast and beautiful Canterbury Plains and it encompasses the community we will be building here. There’s definitely an excitement building as the development starts to take shape and I’m looking forward to creating a vibrant Arvida Living Well Community in the region,” Leigh says.  

Once completed, the community will include a range of retirement lifestyle options for over-65s – from independent living to care and support. 

As earthworks and civil works are progressing on the development, the Arvida Development team are expecting the first phase of villas to be completed by early 2026. Arvida Lincoln Plains will be located at 1506 Springs Road, Lincoln.
