B.C. announces construction to begin on student housing at SFU – Burnaby
AI Article Summary

Construction is set to begin on a new student residence at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Burnaby, providing 445 additional beds, with plans for a new child care facility starting later this year. These developments aim to decrease commute times and ease pressure on the local rental market, in a project with a total capital cost of $196.6 million funded by the Province and SFU. The project is part of SFU's ongoing student-housing expansion, with phases 1 and 2 already adding 856 beds. The new facilities are expected to be completed by fall 2027.
