District Heating System:
Quote:
CORNER BROOK -- Richard Damecour is hoping people in Corner Brook will warm up to the idea of a District Heating System for the community. Mr. Damecour is vice-president of FVB Energy Inc. -- the company hired to conduct a feasibility study into the use of a centralized hot water system as a source of heat throughout the city. The plan would see hot water and steam piped from a centralized location to a number of buildings throughout the community, where it would serve as the main source of heat and hot water for the structures.

Transformation in progress, Corner Brook YMCA building:
Housing Work underway to convert YMCA building into apartment building:
Quote:
Work on gutting the old YMCA building on Renouf Crescent has started, though it may be mid-July before the transformation into an apartment building is evident to passersby.
The 45-year-old building on Renouf Crescent, an elementary school prior to being taken over by the Humber Community YMCA, is being converted into a 29-unit apartment building by Trueman Developments.
The New Brunswick-based company is also planning to eventually build a second structure containing 33 apartments adjacent to the refurbished building.
