Work is now Underway on the Nain and Hopedale Seniors’ Apartment Units.
Nunatsiavut Group of Companies are doing the construction work.
It will take over 30 trailers to transport the units and more than 2000 kilometres of travel by road and boat, but by early fall, four seniors’ apartments (11 units) will be on the ground in Nain and Hopedale and ready for occupancy by next spring.
“This is something new and innovative for Nunatsiavut,” says Elliott. “The north coast construction season begins in July and buildings have to be weathertight by November.
This arrangement allows us to get a two-to-three month jump on the construction season.
That’s a major leap forward.” – DJ Elliott, NCI Construction Manager says.
