HOUSING
Bridge Creek Properties
Affordable housing, both rental and ownership, has been an issue in Revelstoke for many years. In 2009, the City of Revelstoke concluded it would be necessary to intervene in the local real estate marketplace to assist in providing affordable housing, as normal private market development was not meeting the need. The City set aside its former Co-op property, now called Bridge Creek Properties, for this purpose and established the housing society to undertake the work of developing affordable housing and managing the sale or rental of the affordable housing units produced.
Bridge Creek Properties is a 14 acre site situated in the Southside area of Revelstoke bordering Oscar Street and Powerhouse Road. It is named for its proximity to Bridge Creek, a small stream flowing through the Industrial Park into the Illecillewaet River and well known as a Kokanee fish spawning channel.
The first developments were undertaken in 2010 with the sale of a lot to the Province to build an ambulance station and another lot dedicated for construction of a duplex unit at 1016 Oscar Street by the housing society. In 2016, the Society completed its second project, a 12 unit townhouse complex at 1014 Oscar Street.
