Building community in the heart of the city
A Vancouver Chinatown Foundation Initiative
Committed to creating a home where residents can thrive in community, Bob & Michael’s Place aspires to be a model for the future of social housing in Canada.
Bob & Michael’s Place provides 231 new independent living homes alongside a 50,000 square foot integrated health centre that serves the entire community, creating a lasting impact on the lives of its residents.
Bob & Michael’s Place is a response to one of our neighbourhood’s greatest needs—affordable community housing.
Bob and Michael have been catalysts in both Vancouver’s real estate industry and philanthropic community. United by a profound commitment to community stewardship, their vision is to build thriving communities and positively impact the lives of those in need.
About Bob Lee & Michael Audain
"Bob & Michael's Place was built with the vision of uplifting our community, by developing infrastructure around the needs of those who live and work in this neighbourhood. It took a whole community of volunteers, donors and supporters—people who truly care—to realize our vision. We believe this will be the gold standard of social housing we call 'community housing'."
