A Case Study on Building Relocation, Indigenous-Led Housing, and the Power of Partnership

Title: A Case Study on Building Relocation, Indigenous-Led Housing, and the Power of Partnership
Abstract: Through a partnership between the shíshálh Nation, Renewal Development, and Wesgroup Properties, ten demolition-bound homes were rescued from an urban redevelopment site in Port Moody and relocated to shíshálh Nation lands in Sechelt, British Columbia. Through retrofit and adaptive reuse, these homes were transformed into 17 long-term, below-market rental units for Nation members.
