Guysborough heard some welcome housing announcements earlier this week.
Guysborough Tracadie MLA Greg Morrow was on hand to officially open a housing for healthcare workers complex in Guysborough on Monday, the same day the province announced it acquired a six-unit affordable housing project in Boylston, in partnership with the Community First: Guysborough County Housing Association.

Morrow said both announcements are welcome in the area, pointing to the great cooperation with the Community First: Guysborough County Housing Association on the affordable housing project.
The province offered $2.3 million in funding for the eight-unit healthcare workers complex, which the province states is close to amenities and the Guysborough Memorial Hospital.
The Boylston site has five two-bedroom units and one one-bedroom unit, with affordable monthly rents. Provincial funding for the Boylston site included $627,000 through the Community Housing Acquisition Program, and $13,700 from the Community Housing Growth Fund.
