This modular project on West 8th Avenue in Vancouver is part of a permanent supportive housing initiative (PSHI) formed between BC Housing, the City of Vancouver, and the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.

The PSHI intends to build approximately 300 housing units on five city-owned sites to address the community’s rising need for supportive housing.

The volumetric modular construction design solution enables replication and standardisation across all residential floors, cost-effectiveness, logistical ease, and faster completion for the programme.

Besides this modular project, Bird has secured four other contracts. The estimated total value of these five contracts is more than C$530m ($262.44m).
