What a special day for the Invizij Arch-Attacks. Our team ended up raising more than $22,300 for the @ymcahbb and their programs to #shutouthomelessness with Hockey Helps the Homeless. 🏒 🥅

Our team was made up of four local architecture firms, two affordable housing consultant firms, a handful of @indwell.ca staff, our real estate lawyer, and a few friends. Together, we are all working to combat homelessness through affordable & supportive housing, every day. It was an honour to be part of this tournament for the second year in a row.

As the highest fundraisers, we had two pros on our team - the great @darcytucker16 and Megan Bozek (from team USA). They were both so lovely! What a great day, thanks to all our donors for supporting our team and helping those most in need in our community!

Today is a very special day as we got to celebrate both a groundbreaking in St. Thomas and a grand opening in London, for new affordable and supportive housing communities with @indwell.ca !

The second stop was at @indwell.ca Coves Landing grand opening in London. This project converted an old nursing home in 50 independent supportive housing apartments, and a large commercial kitchen that will provide meals for all of Indwell’s London programs.

This project was possible because of a partnership with four local London developers. We love how the spaces turned out, and the artwork on the spandrel windows by our own @laurakonyndyk ! ...

The day started celebrating the beginning of the conversion of Balaclava School into 78 apartments, which will be called Balaclava Crossing. The original 1898 building is incredibly beautiful, and converting it into its next use as homes for those who need it most is incredibly heartening. ❤️

Enjoy these photos from the groundbreaking. A big thanks to our consultant team and to @sierraconstructiongroup for making this dream a reality.

Construction is well underway at @indwell.ca`s Creekside Apartments in Mississauga! @chandosltd Construction has been carefully managing this tight infill site on Lakeshore Ave. E.

You can see how Turtle Creek meanders beside the site. Much care was given to protect the slope stabilization and ecosystem of the protected land behind, while creating 51 much-needed affordable apartments for the community.

Parking access is under and behind the building.

Thank you to Flourish for these fantastic drone shots! ...

Celebrating some good news about our @indwell.ca Health Services Building Apartments project. We are Heritage Permit approved! And with Loftin Management awarded the construction contract, renovations are now underway!

Rehabilitation of the Health Services Building will bring 96 supportive housing units to the Soho neighbourhod. The redevelopment will adhere to Passive House standards, featuring triple-glazed heritage replica windows and restoring the masonry façade and other historic elements.

Built in 1921 and designed by Watt & Blackwell, this collegiate Neoclassical building is one of the three remaining structures from the former Victoria Hospital campus. It plays a key role in preserving the historical narrative of medical services in the area and received heritage designation in 2022.

A big thank you to our heritage consultant, @hobson_heritage , Heritage Planner in London Michael Greguol, and our architects Natalia and Camilo, who poured their energy and expertise into the process.
