La primera vivienda modular temporal de Vancouver
En respuesta a la necesidad inmediata de hacer frente lo antes posible a los problemas de asequibilidad de la vivienda en la ciudad de Vancouver, Horizon North fue seleccionada por la Agencia de Vivienda Asequible de Vancouver (VAHA) para llevar a cabo la primera construcción de viviendas modulares provisionales de la ciudad. Este innovador edificio de viviendas provisionales de tres plantas y 14.785 pies cuadrados proporciona viviendas provisionales a residentes con ingresos bajos y fijos.
El edificio cuenta con 40 suites individuales de 250 pies cuadrados con baños y cocinas independientes, climatización individual y una sala de estar privada. Cuatro de las suites se han diseñado para acoger a personas con necesidades de accesibilidad y presentan una distribución personalizada y un diseño adaptado de fácil uso. Los elementos centrales del edificio incluyen espacios comunes interiores y exteriores, mientras que la fachada exterior presenta dos murales realizados por un artista local de las naciones wuikinuxv y klahoose, que reflejan la historia de la zona.
