Crews Begin To Unwrap Seniors Complex

Some good news for seniors living in the subsidized apartment complex at Market Square -- crews are beginning to remove the plastic wrap that has enveloped the building since last fall.


The building has been wrapped to allow major upgrade work to continue through the winter months -- but -- some seniors began to complain about the lack of fresh air and view.

Social Development Minister Sue Stultz paid a visit to the complex last night to get a first hand glimpse of the situation.

Crews ran into some unforeseen structural problems and the job is now expected to be completed by early summer at a cost of just over 5-million dollars -- about 700-thousand over the original budget.
