The federal government will unveil the designs for its revised wartime housing effort in December. On Tuesday, the federal housing minister will announce the catalogue is coming – with 50 designs, including row homes, fourplexes and sixplexes.
The program was first announced last year as a way to get more homes built faster. It models the federal housing initiative after the Second World War to build standardized “victory homes.”

Permit-ready design packages are not expected to be available until early next year.
