On July 29, 2020, Indwell, a Hamilton-based organization, held a ground breaking ceremony to launch it's Embassy Commons affordable housing project on the site of the old Embassy Hotel at 744 Dundas Street in London, Ontario. The 72-unit apartment building will be geared towards people struggling with addiction, mental health or finding a stable place to live.

Jamelie Hassan participated in the the groundbreaking ceremony and an image from one of her watercolours of the former Embassy Hotel will be installed on the new building's façade.  Read the CBC's news story here.
