DailyHive - This is what the future could look like for rental units in Metro Vancouver

Posted on January 30, 2018

Let’s be real, the demand for rental housing in Vancouver is higher than ever.

Up until now, a common pattern has prevailed; expensive rental units have made living in the city an unattainable dream for many. Hungerford Properties hopes to change that, as they’ve recently started construction on a brand new development that offers something long-awaited in Metro Vancouver: The Link.

It’s an innovative, mixed-use development project that blends social and market rental housing with commercial retail, all located near Boundary and Kingsway at the Vancouver-Burnaby border.

But what makes The Link stand out is that it redevelops an aging seniors residence called Odd Fellows Manor into a new, vibrant, six-storey, mixed-use development.

And it’s all happening because of a partnership between the non-profit, Odd Fellows Low Rental Housing Society, Terra Special Projects, GBL Architects, the City of Vancouver and Hungerford Properties.
