CASE STUDY
Renewal Development
Renewal Development successfully facilitated the relocation and repurposing of four homes to the Sts’ailes Nation in Agassiz, British Columbia.
Four Coquitlam homes built in 2016, were slated for demolition to make space for new developments. Instead of contributing to landfill waste, Renewal Development successfully facilitated the relocation and repurposing of these homes to the Sts’ailes Nation in Agassiz, British Columbia.
What We Did
