In the fall of 2002, these tensions erupted with the creation of a squat at 101 West Hastings, also known as the Woodward's building, created by the Vancouver affordable housing social movement. Using photographs, oral interviews, in addition to Vancouver Sun newspaper articles and a squatters' diary this comparative- qualitative methodological study creates a written history, while also formulating a sociological analysis of the Woodward's building squat and affordable housing social movement that occurred from September 14, 2002 to December 14, 2002.
