Rent Geared to Income: 48
This housing project provides 48 units for people with low and moderate incomes including 24 units that are part of an outreach partnership with Kettle Society which offers Supported Independent Living units for individuals living with mental health issues. This housing development is part of a portfolio of properties developed by the Vancouver Community Land Trust Foundation that emerged from a Mayor’s Task Force in 2012, which recommended that the city lease land at a nominal rate to create new affordable rental housing. A new land trust was developed and took on a portfolio of four housing projects on city land in 2015. The land trust has entered into operating agreements with non-profit providers.
