Happy New Year! It's our first visit to site after the holidays and the drywall is now complete in all ten homes. This is a real milestone for our project. 

In addition the pathways to each home are going in as we speak, so fresh the cement is still wet!

The access road into the complex now has a surface and we are moving along with our two accessible units. Elevators have now been fitted in each and you can see all the doorways are wider to accommodate the needs of a barrier free home.

Each of these ten affordable homes are now getting a storage area built on at the back along with a shared bicycle storage area. Preparation work is underway with curbs and hardcore for the shared parking as well. All four blocks are now getting their exterior cladding and work continues inside. The first units are now carpeted upstairs and the final units have drywall installed.  

The Urban Systems Team joined us on Saturday and did an amazing job helping us to get eleven fence panels in place at the Bakerview build. Thank you team - you are amazing!

This week we we took some time to share the progress of our builds with our amazing Habitat team members. With tours running throughout the week our ReStore staff along with new and seasoned Affiliate teams had the opportunity to see for themselves just how quickly things are changing on site. Everyone asked some great questions, keeping the build team on their toes!

As the shingle goes on to the last building the first is already getting painted! With drywall complete in the first triplex each unit is running approximately 3 weeks following the one in front so our teams can move through them one after another.
