Housing Project Dept: Sousa said the 2015 sporting event sparked a private-public partnership project on the contaminated site of the aborted Ataratiri housing project cancelled almost a generation ago, according to The Star. It will generate 5,200 jobs and, after the Games, leave a legacy of 787 condo and 253 affordable housing units, a 500-student residence for George Brown College, and a YMCA recreation centre in a new neighbourhood nestled between Parliament St. and the Don Valley Parkway south of Corktown and shovels are in the ground for a Pan Am Games athletes village that will finally realize the decades-long dream of developing the West Don Lands, says Citizenship and Immigration Minister Charles Sousa. This project is about building a waterfront community that will be the temporary home of more than 10,000 athletes, the minister told 200 people Thursday at the adjacent Distillery District.
