North Shore Neighbourhood House has served the community since 1939 but has outgrown its aging facility built in 1967. In partnership with Catalyst and the City of North Vancouver, the organization is creating a multi-phase community hub in the heart of Lower Lonsdale that brings together affordable housing, community services, and spaces for connection. The first phase included the construction of 89 below-market rental homes and a seniors’ respite centre offering overnight stays and daytime programs for older adults. The next phase of the HUB project provides a new, expanded home for North Shore Neighbourhood House alongside 179 non-market rental homes.
