HAMILTON — The Ontario government is providing $5 million to help create 43 one-bedroom units that will support low-income individuals in need of affordable housing in downtown Hamilton.
Located at 225 East Avenue North, the three-storey building is energy efficient and includes six accessible and barrier-free units. The building also has designated program space and residents will have access to amenities such as a laundry room, a kitchenette in the common space, bike storage, a courtyard, terrace and communal gardens.
“Our government’s housing plan is about creating more homes for the people of Ontario, including supportive housing that is critical to the well-being of both residents and the community,” said Associate Minister Rob Flack. “This investment supports a project that provides housing solutions for some of the most vulnerable residents in Hamilton.”
