Two birds. A nest. A shared ascent. With art by Reagan Harding, this playground at Aggie’s and Shirley’s House is more than a place to play — it’s a space to heal, grow and thrive. Proud to bring this to life with @rubberpaving and Madera Playscapes.
Check out the progress on the CUMFI project Aggie’s House & Shirley’s House in #yxe! These 20-unit emergency and transitional homes for First Nations, Métis, and LGBTQ2S+ individuals fleeing domestic violence are built with speed and heart.
Watch the construction in action!
Take a look at the interior of the newly completed transitional housing building for the @YWCASaskatoon — a safe and supportive space that is becoming home to 75 women and children.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this vision a reality in #yxe.
🌱 We’re settling into our new office space and must say: growth looks good on us! Catch us in our natural habitat: building more modular multifamily homes than anyone else in Canada and maximizing square footage.
📍New HQ:
3703 Mitchelmore Avenue, Unit #10
Saskatoon, SK
The @CHRA_ACHRU National Congress was in #yxe this year, and participants toured the CUMFI Aggie’s House & Shirley’s House project — emergency & transitional housing for First Nations, Métis, and LGBTQ2S+ individuals fleeing domestic violence.
📦 Boxes, bubble wrap & chaos… we’re moving! 🎉
We outgrew our space (and fridge) — time for a new HQ:
📍3703 Mitchelmore Ave, Unit 10
Saskatoon, SK — starting April 25!
Thanks for your patience as we settle in. Shoutout to Prairie Office for the help 💪

Smart density, done right. From 2 storeys to 6, stacking flats with our prefab-first approach means unlocking more doors on less land, in less time—that’s the upside of low- to mid-rise multifamily buildings with Big Block. 🏢⚡

⛷️ Exciting plans at @SkiFernie! We're shaping a ski-in community on Resort Drive with stacked quadplex homes (2- & 4-bed options), built for active mountain living. Stay tuned for updates! 🏔️❄️ #fernie#skifernie#kootrocks#britishcolumbia
And just like that, the other half of Aggie’s House and Shirley’s House is in place—craning is complete on this new 20-unit build for CUMFI. The next step? Integrating the two buildings with a shared entrance! Thank you to everyone involved behind the scenes making it all happen!
From keeping builds on track in Regina & Calgary to outplaying most of our team in golf, Peter Wild knows how to drive results. Now, he’s stepping off-site into Project Management, using his hands-on expertise to keep projects running smoothly from a new vantage point. ⛳️
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who walked, donated, & supported the CNOY event for @YWCASaskatoon! Big Block raised $7k towards the $50k goal, & your generosity & dedication will help provide vital programs & services for women & families in need.
