    The majority of these homes will be built in the Crestview Avenue area.

    Government has issued a Request for Proposals for the construction of 50 new provincially owned homes in Corner Brook. The majority of these homes will be built in the Crestview Avenue area. In the first phase of the project, multiple contracts totaling nearly $1 million were awarded for the abatement and demolition of 32 long-term vacant apartments in the area, work that is nearing completion.

    The new builds will involve the construction of multiple buildings that will feature a combination of one- and two-bedroom homes, which are in the greatest demand. Design and construction will demonstrate best practices in terms of land use, integration of walkways, parking and landscaping. A minimum of 10 units will be fully wheelchair-accessible, while all units will incorporate universal design features, such as wider doors and lever handles. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2025.
