Project info

In collaboration with the City of Vancouver, BC Housing, and Vancouver Coastal Health, this state-of-the-art development will provide much needed services for the residents of Vancouver. In addition to 100 residential units of affordable housing, this new building will accommodate community-centred addictions programs, including on-site and out-patient withdrawal management, and a city-owned social enterprise program space focusing on Indigenous healing and wellness through employment. The site, previously under-utilized with five small residential buildings, was consolidated and rezoned to support this development.

For this project, we are using an integrated project delivery (IPD) approach to provide design assist support for the electrical and audio-visual scopes. By engaging with our partners to understand the current target value, our team is establishing a network of trust early in the process. We’re also designing and collaborating in a “Big Room” environment to encourage quick transfer of ideas and design efficiency, as well as conducting continuous budget monitoring to ensure the team is making the right decisions.
