Terrace – Tetrault Street

New, affordable homes
We are planning to build up to 35 affordable new homes that will include on-site support services for future residents. Rezoning is not required for development. This project is an important part of BC Housing’s continued efforts to address and prevent homelessness in the community.
This site is zoned for residential use with a base density of 35 units. We plan to demolish the existing vacant structures at 2802 and 2804 Tetrault Street in May 2025 to prepare for site work and construction.
Community Engagement
A caring community contributes greatly to the success of supportive housing residents. Our community dialogue session took place online on March 14, 2024. We want to thank all participants for their time and thoughtful questions.
BC Housing and our project partners will share more information about this project later in 2025, including project designs and development timelines, as well as introduce the non-profit housing operator. We will send session invitations by mail to area neighbours when more details are available. We look forward to meeting with the community again.
The need for supportive housing
A 2023 homelessness count showed 156 people were experiencing homelessness in Terrace. This is a nearly 50% increase from 2022 homelessness count.
These supportive homes will be deeply affordable studio apartments, each with a private bathroom and kitchenette. They are intended for people who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. These individuals require supports to maintain their housing. This may include meals, life skills and employment training, and referrals to health care and other community services. Many supportive housing programs also provide culturally informed services.
Residents will be single adults (19+) of all genders, including seniors and people with disabilities, or anyone who has experienced trauma, poverty, or struggled with the high cost of housing.
