Published purpose

Housing NWT is tackling the challenges of delivering affordable housing to 33 northern communities, such as housing affordability, vulnerable transportation networks due to climate change, and community involvement in design and construction. To help address this challenge, they have developed a hybrid housing system featuring a standardized modular “service core” that can be transported to remote areas and then completed by local builders. This Project will perform a detailed analysis of this prototype in order to refine the system and share it as a potential solution across the north.
