Sunshine Coast Community Services Society and BC Housing have been working with our team to redevelop an existing administration and program building into a mixed-use building.
Building Together will be a six-storey, wood-frame building that provides 34 units of multi-generational affordable rental housing for single women, women with children, female youth aging out of care, and senior women. It will offer studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom units across the top four storeys. The bottom two storeys will also provide a range of spaces tailored to the needs of community support programs, community gardens, pedestrian walkways and outdoor gathering spaces. Food security will be a strong focus with community gardens and the commercial kitchen, creating a hub where community members in need can access programs and services in spaces tailored to the needs of the support programs.
Construction began in November 2024, and is expected to complete Fall 2026.
