Algoma University and Holland College have each announced new developments and projects on the housing front. AlgomaU is expanding its student housing with the construction of a residence with up to 600 beds. The residence will include single and double bedrooms grouped in four-to-six-bed suites; each will have bathrooms, a kitchen, and a dedicated living space. Meanwhile, Holland College has partnered with the Government of Prince Edward Island’s PEI Housing Corporation to create single-family homes that will address the greater community’s need for affordable housing. College students from programs ranging from carpentry to HVAC are involved in building the homes, which will be used by families in the community in need of housing.
