Throwback Thursday to Spring 2021 when the Round Prairie Elders’ Lodge in Saskatoon had just finished craning! Central Urban Métis Federation Inc. President Shirley Isbister spoke from the heart about the hopes for the Lodge, which have now been realized.
Big Block's Ben Miller will be speaking about #NetZero multi-family builds at the Alberta Energy Efficiency + Innovation Summit with Building Knowledge Canada's Andy Oding, @avalonMB's Chris Williams & @landmarkyeg / @chbanetzero's Haitao Yu. Thanks to hosts @AEEAlliance & SSRIA!
Happy #EarthDay! Big Block is an environmental sustainability leader, completing Canada’s first Net Zero multi-family building & applying lessons learned to #rapidhousing like Horse Dance Lodge in #yqr, which won the @ReginaRegionHBA Master Award for Green Build of the Year.
Big Block's Ben Miller is at Building Knowledge Canada's Spring Training this week! He’s speaking on manufactured housing; rapid, affordable housing & the tech driving it forward alongside @chbanetzero’s Lynne Strickland, & @PromiseRobotics CEO @ramtinattar. #betterwaytobuild
🏆 #yqr's first RHI project won Green Build of the Year at @ReginaRegionHBA Master Awards & we shared in celebration with @CityofRegina & Silver Sage Housing Corp! Designed & engineered by Indigenous firms w/ community input to "Net Zero Ready" it saves ~$5.3k/yr in energy costs.
We’re excited for tomorrow's @ReginaRegionHBA Master Awards! Big Block’s project, the Silver Sage Horse Dance Lodge / misatimosimôwin mîhkowâp, is nominated for Green Build of the Year. Congrats to all the finalists, and good luck!
Congrats to Paul-Rémi Poulin on his recent promotion to VP Sales! Paul-Rémi is one of the first Big Block team members customers meet, listening to their desired outcomes and explaining how we can help. Read more about his work here: buff.ly/3PHgSuW
Meet Big Block’s architectural tech Tanner Mack! Tanner was first drawn to architecture in elementary school and has pursued that goal ever since. Tanner brings a wide range of experience from his previous architectural work and applies that knowledge to propel BB to new heights.
Big Block staff packed more than 500 pounds of sausage this week for the annual sausage fundraiser hosted by Bishop Filevich Ukrainian Bilingual School in #yxe 🇺🇦 We'll be out and about delivering the sausage to some partners just in time for Easter!
Meet Amanda Schuler! As Project Coordinator, Amanda ensures the smooth execution of projects through administrative tasks. With a background in both non-profit and commercial construction, Amanda helps Big Block see processes in a new light. Read more: buff.ly/43zGPlY
We recently completed another successful craning day at a modular construction project in #yqr! After placing the last module, workers securely connect to the rest of the building. From the outside, it’s hard to see the interiors of these stacked townhomes are nearly complete!
The @CMHC_ca National Housing Conference brought together nationwide experts to discuss ideas to drive actionable outcomes to Canada's #housingcrisis. Big Block CEO Alex Miller shared how we partnered with CUMFI in #yxe to unlock more Métis-owned and operated housing faster.
“Turning dirt into a 14-unit (58 bedrooms) housing took 4.5 months.” - Alex Miller, @BigBlockConst & @SaskatoonHBA member. Right here in Saskatchewan, selling their bold story and partnership with CUMFI, in Ottawa for others to learn from. #nhc24
Construction is still a male-dominated field and training women can help solve the labour shortage. We support @YWCASaskatoon’s Trade Journey program by touring the YWCA expansion site and employing program graduate River Janvier. Read more: buff.ly/43d9SMe #yxe #IWD2024
#Alberta needs a 47% increase in community housing by 2030 to meet its needs. Taking a #HousingFirst approach and using #ModularConstruction can provide more housing faster. But it also needs to be done at scale, which starts with sourcing the right land: buff.ly/48KOQp3
Great news for housing in Saskatoon! The StarPhoenix reports that city staff have estimated that the deal will help encourage the construction of 25,200 housing units over the next 10 years. buff.ly/4bTeRp9 #yxe #affordablehousing
The new wing of @YWCASaskatoon is coming along! This short film shows the slab-pouring process. #Rapidhousing timelines can mean pouring in less-than-ideal temperatures but we got this work done before the snow hit. We used concrete for cold temps and pre-heated forming & rebar.
When designing the Silver Sage Horse Dance Lodge in #yqr, Architect David Fortin said he and his team greatly emphasized engagement. “It’s like a campfire when you blow on the fire to get it going — the community breathes that fire into it.” buff.ly/3URjb2e
