The Chief Agnes MᶜCoy Centre was named in honour of the late Agnes MᶜCoy, an elected Chief and respected Elder from ʔaq̓am and one of the founders of the ʔAqantⱠanam Housing Society. It provides stable quality rental housing for independent Indigenous and non-Indigenous families, Elders and individuals who cannot afford market rental rates. 

The 3-storey wood-frame building includes 39 units, including 4 accessible apartments. The units on the first floor have doors that lead directly onto the deck and the 2nd and 3rd floor units all have balconies that open to the outside.

Lu’ma Development Management (LDM) was responsible for the development management and construction claims management. LDM helped ʔAqantⱠanam Housing Society organize an open house and public hearing for the site, which resulted in an amendment of the Official Community Plan and a change in the bylaw zoning that enabled the project to move forward.
