This is transformative! City Council approves a vacant office conversion to affordable housing in the downtown core. This will be a demonstration project by our members @HomeSpaceyyc on what's possible for the future of Calgary. #yyccc #yyc #yycplan

[HomeSpace Society @HomeSpaceyyc]

“We hope this will spark interest in doing different types of conversions & using existing office space in the core in different ways" says @BMajdell of our Sierra Place project approved by #yyccc yesterday as part of the DT plan. Story by @ctvkevingreen:

[SORCe @SORCecalgary]

We're so excited to announce the launch of our new Housing Location program at SORCe. This program will compliment our existing CAA housing program by supporting people who need a little extra help navigating the affordable rental market. https://t.co/IPT5uItv7Q

[Onward Homes @OnwardYYC]

We know affordable housing is crucial to ending #homelessness, more cost-effective than temporary solutions & needed by many Calgarians. DYK that the average rent at Horizon is almost half of a typical #yyc apartment?

[HomeSpace Society @HomeSpaceyyc]

DYK - Calgary is projected to have 100,000 households in core housing need, or overpaying for housing, by 2025. We need more #affordablehousing solutions to meet the urgent need of our city. #yyc
