As I happened past today. Not a lot to report on here outside but I bet the interior is humming along and residents soon. All the windows are in and exterior wrapped up like a Xmas present.

They will all look nice. I think the one just south of 137th ave next to the tracks will be the largest

Actually the Westmount PSH site is the largest at 54 units, whereas the Wellington site near 137th Ave is 50 units.

Has the Westmount site had their modules delivered yet? Haven’t driven by in awhile.
I have noticed this one seems the furthest along, no?

"The four-storey housing site features a communal main floor for living space and wrap-around supports, like counselling and health care. There are 30 homes — each with their own kitchen and bathroom. Some are barrier-free, for those with mobility issues. They’re all either one-bedroom suites, or studios.
In the next six weeks, the city said four additional supportive housing sites will be completed. The other four are located in Inglewood, Westmount, McArthur and Terrace Heights. In addition to a safe, warm place to live, the supportive aspects of these projects include staff like counsellors, addictions workers and other health-care professionals.
The projects were fast-tracked with funding from the federal government’s Rapid Housing Initiative, and will provide a total of 210 new homes to Edmontonians who have experienced homelessness. The city said all five supportive housing developments will welcome residents later this summer.
The city said the second round of funding from the Rapid Housing Initiative will add another 243 supportive housing units in three hotel conversion projects."

Wonder which hotels they've chosen for that? I thought I saw or read somewhere that the Coliseum Inn was one of those hotels.
