Project Overview
Located just south of Metrotown and with access to Skytrain, the L’Arche Community Housing Project is a redevelopment of L’Arche Greater Vancouver’s group homes, expanding its housing portfolio to include purpose-built rental housing. The project is unique in that people with and without developmental disabilities share life together. The development includes three fully accessible group homes, affordable rental housing, and a variety of program spaces.
Key Highlights
CitySpaces supported L’Arche as its’ Owner’s Representative, working with Townline Housing Solutions on a design-build contract. CitySpaces coordinated funding with a variety of partners, including primary funding from BC Housing with additional support from the City of Burnaby, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, and Community Living British Columbia. The partnerships enabled L’Arche to create a unique faith-based intentional community and care model.
