Project Overview

This challenging and extensive project consists of the removal and replacement of 49 residential buildings containing 200 units, with the work performed over 8 interconnecting phases. Each phase involves the replacement of 5 to 6 buildings. As residents were relocated from their existing units, the construction team demolished the entire phase, installed new foundations, new site utilities and infrastructure as well as new, unique, modular buildings. Most buildings contain four units, ranging in size from 1-bedroom flats to 3 bedroom townhouse style units, and several barrier-free accessible suites.

The use of prefabricated modular buildings allowed Delphi Construction to execute an efficient project schedule, coordinating the completion of both interior and exterior work during the same time period, expediting completion and reducing overall project costs.
