Tenants in Vancouver ’s Chinatown had three months to pack up and get out of the Sun Ah Hotel .
Landlords were unable to insure the building after five insurance claims caused by fire and water over 15 months , the document says.
The eviction notices were taped on every tenant's door, but with an unusual feature, someone wrote their own reason in pen: “ Landlord cannot obtain building insurance” Vancouver relies heavily on privately owned single-room occupancy buildings to keep poor people out of homelessness.
For decades , the lower storeys of 100 East Pender were occupied by the Ho Ho , one of Chinatown’s most famous restaurants.
For about a decade now, that space has sat empty, and businesswoman and philanthropist Carol Lee has been working to re-open it.
Lee said she was surprised to hear about the Sun Ah tenants’ eviction notices.
In July of this year , the City of Vancouver granted $ 596,000 to the owners for plumbing and fire-safety upgrades.
