Hadgraft Wilson Place,Kelowna,UBC-Okanagan

Okanagan College will temporarily open its new student housing building on KLO Road to displaced residents of Hadgraft Wilson Place.

WATCH: It's been idle this month, but some activity has resumed at the construction site of UBC-Okanagan's downtown Kelowna campus. The construction of what will be a university tower is being blamed for structural damage at nearby buildings, including one that displaced more than 80 people with physical and mental challenges. Klaudia Van Emmerik has an update.

“Providing some stability about their next few months and having the amenities of homes will hopefully make things easier while they wait for the remediation of our building and next steps.”
