Episode Details

Construction has begun on a landmark affordable housing project in Mill Woods, bringing 68 new homes to the former Kiniski Gardens school site — part of a bold city-wide plan to turn surplus school properties into much-needed housing. Priced at 23.6 million, the development features a mix of townhouses designed to serve families and individuals at rents 60-80% below market, with a 40-year affordability commitment from Right at Home Housing Society. This is just the first of over 1,300 units planned across the city, fueled by federal and provincial investments totaling 177 million, plus city land valued at 2.5 million. While past projects faced community pushback, the city remains committed to this strategy as a vital step toward solving the housing crisis and giving thousands of residents a stable foundation to build their lives.
