The developer acquired the building in 2007, a year after the City of Vancouver ordered the previous private owner and their tenants to vacate due to the building’s dangerous condition. Prior to the building’s use as an SRO, it was an office building.
However, as of today, this building’s future will come full circle, as it has been acquired by BC Housing for supportive homes for women experiencing homelessness in the area, specifically those “who are committed to reducing or stopping substance use.”
The provincial government covered the $10.9 million cost of acquiring the building from the developer. It will also provide the operator, Atira Women’s Resource Society, with an annual operating fund of $1.3 million.

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. – By-election candidate Trystan Jones has been outspoken about racial inequality in the Peace Region and continues his advocacy while vying for a seat at council.
Jones, who grew up on a farm in the Peace region, says racial discrimination is something he’s dealt with his entire life as an Asian Canadian. He looks to use his experiences to open up a dialogue surrounding race issues in the area.
“I truly believe that there are communities and groups within our town that don’t get nearly as much support, whether it’s due to the color of their skin or the gender that they have. There are numerous factors, and there’s a whole bunch of different things that need to be addressed in town in regards to social issues,” says Jones.
