The funds, in the form of a Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation loan, actually total $604,905. The project will be built on Winnipeg Street near the town's core shopping area. Twenty-three one-bedroom apart- ments will be arranged in a two-storey walk-up building set on tastefully land- scaped grounds which will also feature garden-plots for the residents' use. Construction is expected to start this summer with completion scheduled for July, 1979.
