Invitation to Tender Issued for Demolition of Vacant Buildings for New Homes in Corner Brook
The Provincial Government issued an invitation to tender for the demolition of 32 existing long-term vacant units in the Crestview Avenue area of Corner Brook to make way for the construction of 50 new provincially-owned homes.
The Provincial Government announced $20 million to construct new homes in the area that are modern and energy efficient, with universal design features incorporated throughout.
On May 30, Inflector Environmental Services LP was awarded a tender to undertake abatement of the existing structures, valued at $429,300. The abatement process is ongoing and was required to safely remove materials containing asbestos and any other environmental concerns from the buildings prior to demolition.
The invitation to tender issued includes the demolition of four vacant buildings in the Crestview Avenue area, as well as the safe removal of debris from the site and preparation of the site for new construction.
It is anticipated that an RFP for the construction of the new buildings will be issued in late-summer or early-fall 2024. The project will include multi-unit buildings that feature a combination of one- and two-bedroom homes, the greatest area of need in the current social housing portfolio.
