Mid-rise, re-thought.
A steel modular system for buildings up to six storeys. Engineered for the missing-middle housing typology that sticks developers, cities, and communities alike.

Same home. Sunrise to sundown. Flip the switch.

Every layout starts on the modular grid — six storeys, fifty-five units, delivered fast enough to actually move the needle on housing supply.
Mid-density is the typology Canadian cities need most — and the one our construction system is least equipped to deliver. Single-family is too small. High-rise is too risky and too slow. Powerhouse X exists to fill that gap.
A steel modular system, factory-fabricated and crane-set, lets us build six-storey buildings on the timeline of a single home. Developers get cost certainty. Cities get the housing typology they need. Communities get neighbourhoods that actually feel like neighbourhoods.
Powerhouse X is built with the people who will live in it — not just for them. We partner with cities, non-profits, and residents to deliver affordable housing for students, seniors, front-line workers, and every staff housing model in between.
Affordable housing within reach of every campus and transit line.
Accessibility and community designed in — not bolted on.
Staff housing for the people who keep our cities running.
Missing-middle tenancy — mixed-income neighbourhoods that actually mix.
From our community events — listening, co-designing, launching together
The same playbook that delivered Pender on Pender Street is the playbook for the next thousand mid-rise sites across Canada.
We work with developers and municipalities looking to deliver mid-density housing on a different timeline.
