Habitat for Humanity is bringing a new affordable housing project to Cranbrook.
Council has approved the donation of a City-owned parcel at 2600 4th Street South.
The project will be a side-by-side duplex with each unit featuring three bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms and an unfinished basement.
“This project builds on a successful partnership between the City and Habitat back in 2014, when land was provided for a home in Slaterville. With affordable housing continuing to be a key need in Cranbrook, we as a Council are committed to addressing local housing challenges which aligns with our Housing Strategy and our strategic priorities,” said Mayor Wayne Price.
“A big thank you to Habitat for Humanity Southeast BC for reaching out about this opportunity and providing much needed housing to local families. We look forward to seeing this partnership continue to grow.”
The city has been working with Habitat for Humanity since the fall of 2024 to get this project off the ground.
