Elevator at Vancouver social housing building fixed months ahead of timeline

The hotel, which is just over 20 years old, is operated by PHS Community Services Society, with Vancouver Coastal Health and BC Housing as community partners.

Previously on Monday, B.C. Minister of Housing Ravi Kahlon pointed to “supply chain issues” as the culprit as to why it was taking so long to get fixed, and expected the elevator to be fixed in April. That did not end up being the case, however, as on Friday, PHS confirmed the elevator had been fixed and a “broken wire” had been the issue.

“As part of the ongoing assessment of the current elevator while we await full modernization, a broken wire function was discovered and repaired on Tuesday and the elevator has been operational since that time,” said Tanya Fader, PHS Community Services Society’s director of housing.After receiving PHS’ emailed statement, Global News requested an interview with PHS Community Services Society Friday. It did not respond before publication.

“It just took like maybe 15-20 minutes of them working on it, and now it’s working again,” said Alex Cleroux.
