It doesn’t look like it’s about to fall over.
Residents were escorted out of the building on Bertram Street just before 2 p.m. by members of the Kelowna Fire Department and city staff.
The Hadgraft Wilson building, which opened in June 2023, offers 68 units of affordable housing and 10 for clients of Pathways Abilities Society.
Many of the residents have physical or mental disabilities.
On Sunday afternoon, the City of Kelowna issued a news release saying residents will be evacuated for the next “several days.”
“Recent assessments have indicated the level of risk is significant enough to begin the evacuation process to ensure the life and safety of occupants. Additionally, due to the shifting of the building, safety features may be compromised in the event of an emergency, creating additional risk to occupants,” said Fire Chief Dwight Seymour.
The 43-storey UBC Okanagan tower planned for 550 Doyle Avenue includes a four-storey underground parkade, a first for Kelowna that requires a large excavation. That big dig has created significant problems for neighbouring buildings. The Kelowna Legion Hall on Bertram Street and Okanagan coLab at the corner of St. Paul and Doyle were also previously declared uninhabitable.
