This urban site in Ottawa’s downtown is ideally suited for a mixed use development that incorporates the adaptive reuses of an important heritage building. The facility incorporates a mix of 170 units for seniors and condominium owners. Underground parking for 102 cars and ground floor commercial uses are part of the project’s appeal to residents and neighbours alike. The 8 storey facility carefully addresses the relationship of the site to its surroundings through a richly developed landscaping plan that features a variety of textures and colours.
