Coniston Non-Profit Seniors – Opening the Elmwood
Coolearth was excited last Friday to be celebrating the opening of the Coniston Non-Profit Seniors Housing “Elmwood” building with the board, local politicians and stakeholders! The Grand Opening of the 55-unit high performance seniors housing project was on Friday September 29th, 2023.
The Sudbury Times quotes local MP Marc Serre who attended the Coniston Elmwood residences opening as saying: “The completion of the Elmwood is an amazing milestone for Nickel Belt… The Coniston Non-Profit Seniors Housing Corporation has done a tremendous job of responding to community needs with a sustainable housing solution. I look forward to working with them again, and with other community groups, to advance affordable housing accessibility in Nickel Belt.”
Take a look at the Sudbury Times article for a very informed piece commenting on the challenges and opportunities of developing seniors housing projects, or look at our past blog posts on the Coniston Project to learn more (here and here).
They are still finishing painting the self-supporting balcony’s (avoiding the thermal bridges of a cantilevered balcony), but as you can see the building is getting ready for it’s first residents! We’re very excited to share more pictures in the coming months.
