The organization is proposing to make use of future City development sites by building temporary cabin communities to get unhoused individuals out of the cold until construction begins.

“We know the City of Toronto is planning to build 65,000 permanent affordable housing units on municipal land, however permitting and construction can take five years or more (often many, many more),” 2SH’s Director, Robert Raynor told blogTO.

2SH’s proposed communities would involve 50 lockable cabins, which would offer residents electric heating and AC, safety, security, and privacy.
