Ontario Aboriginal Housing Services expects the transitional housing development to be finished in about 16 months.

THUNDER BAY — A significant housing project on Junot Avenue has moved past the shovel-ready stage and into the initial construction phase.

When completed in about 16 months, the three-storey transitional housing facility will have 58 units in a mix of pod-style and independent living quarters. A major hurdle was cleared last August when the Ontario government announced a contribution of $8.7 million toward construction costs. OAHS says it will host various programs for the residents, including employment training and education assistance, in a setting that provides a sense of community and cultural connection.
