In September 2026, Compass Nova Scotia completed redevelopment projects in Shelburne and Digby County, creating 13 new co-operative homes to help with the shortage of affordable housing in rural areas. The project transformed a former municipal building into Heritage Hall Neighbourhood and converted a former elementary school into Barton School Neighbourhood, both providing barrier-free living spaces. Specifically, there are two fully accessible units, seven one-bedroom units, and six two-bedroom units, addressing the pressing need for affordable housing in these communities while preserving local landmarks.
