50 more affordable rental housing units are going to be built in the Tsleil-Waututh’s Burrard Inlet reserve, thanks to some additional funding from the BC government.

The building will consist of a mix of units ranging in size from 1 bedrooms up to 4 bedrooms. The building will bring a range of unit sizes so multi-generational families can stay close and stay together. The building will have a first floor common area for the residence to share and enjoy, which includes a meeting room with kitchen facilities attached.

Our government has brought in a 10-year and 7-billion dollar housing plan, with a focus to bringing in affordable housings to communities most in need. This building is one of many that has received funding through this plan. Construction is due to start late 2022.

Affordable housing is something that is much needed over in the North Shore and I so pleased that this project is going ahead.
