The existing 11 storey circa 1960's office building will be selectively demolished to the super structure, including an initial asbestos abatement. All underground parking structure decks will be structurally upgraded as well as expanded to the east. The leasable office areas of the building will then be expanded in floor area to the south and east on the 2nd to eleventh floors and the new building facades will be clad with a new high efficience glazing system. The main floor retail component of the building will be re-partitioned and expanded to the east, to accomodate a wide variety of retail/restaurant tenants and will be fully glazed to Jasper Avenue and 108th Street. The new building incorporates specific pedestrian and landscaping requirements outlined by the Downtown Main Street Commercial zoning and the retail main floor will provide excellent human scale to Jasper Avenue pedestrians, while incorporating the larger upper floor footprints. Surface/outdoor parking for the retail main floor tenants will be provided on the rear roof deck of the main floor retail. This parking and the building loading and refuse/recycling areas will be accessed from the north lane of the property.

East Port Properties Limited, as Agent and Manager for the owner, HOOPP (Hospital Organizations of Ontario Pension Plan) Realty Inc. - The multi-tenant leased warehouse is a 63,180 sq. ft. tilt-up concrete building with a 24 foot clear height. Sandwich panel walls, under slab insulation, and an R-30 insulated roof contribute to an efficient building envelope. The primary heat is supplied by a natural gas fired in-floor heating system, with supplementary natural gas unit heaters adjacent to loading bay doors. Site cast and erected concrete construction allowed the building to be constructed with a large volume of locally available materials, and a high percentage of recycled content through the reduction of portland cement in the concrete. Punched windows around the entire perimeter of the building at 20 foot high will provide up to 75% daylighting in the space. This is enhanced by supplemental skylights to make up for losses caused by racking inside the warehouse. Lighting is designed with high-efficiency fluorescents, dimmers and motion sensors to supplement the daylighting available through the glazing.

Key Sustainability Features Ground source heat pump Double exterior wall system Thermally separated windows Often refered to as the Capers Building, this project has become a much-referenced example of green building practices. Much more than a corner market, the entire complex uses a ground source heat pump to heat and cool, a rainscreen envelope, a double exterior wall system, and thermally separated windows resulting in excellent acoustic, moisture, and insulation performance. The building’s lighting strategies maximize daylight and feature low-energy electric fixtures. Residents enjoy low-emission carpets made from recycled pop bottles, filtered water, and usable green roof space.   This post was imported from the 'Greater Vancouver Green Guide', it's part of the 'Green Guide Portal' to the Green Building Brain.

The new five storey office building is being built along the 401 highway to provide tenant space in the greater Toronto area. Energy efficient design and a bi-fuel generator provide the tenant with significantly reduced operating costs through energy conservation and peak shaving and lengthy full building backup power. The tenants will further enjoy the improved indoor air quality resultant of the careful selection of low toxicity LEED compliant materials throughout the building and Redcliffe's green housekeeping which will only allow low toxicity cleaning chemicals during operation. This building is a trial construction to attract tenants to a building with measurable and significant health, environmental, and operating cost benefits.

Key Sustainability Features The marsh pond (1.7 ha) created by Metro Vancouver is one of the largest wildlife habitat areas in the Lower Mainland Trails for: Walking/hiking (9.5 km), horseback riding (7 km), cycling (7.5 km) Located in the heart of the Fraser Valley, Aldergrove Bowl is a beautiful and inviting habitat for plants and wildlife as well as a recreation destination for residents. What makes this area a model for sustainable practices is that it is a former gravel pit where biosolids have been used to supplement inadequate top soil to facilitate plant growth and habitat creation. "The Aldergrove Bowl", as it is known, was turned into a natural setting and functional park space with the cooperation of the former gravel pit operators. It is unlikely that it would be as lush as it is today without the use of biosolids. Their use is one of the most notable features of the reclamation project. READ MORE

Allwest Commercial Furnishings Office and Showroom Allwest Commercial Furnishings is one of Alberta's largest contract furnishing companies specializing in providing innovative solutions for the office environment. They have been leaders in the business furniture industry since 1974. Allwest also has a strong commitment to Canadian manufacturers; blending this commitment with their clients' needs. One of Allwest's major Canadian manufacturing partners, Teknion, is a strong proponent of sustainable design and LEED. Teknion is a leader in sustainable furnishings and have registered their headquarters in Toronto with LEED-EB (US). They are actively working towards registering two showrooms for LEED-CI (Canada) and asked Allwest to also pursue LEED certification for their showroom in Alberta. Allwest's existing office space is 6,000 square feet, and the new showroom will be 7,000 square feet making the entire project 13,000 square feet. The architectural portion of the expansion was already underway when the decision to apply for LEED was made. Therefore LEED-CI was chosen over LEED-NC. The tenant improvements were already being dealt with as a separate project to the architectural expansion when LEED was adopted. The timing was great as the tenant improvements were just starting to be designed. The design approach was to develop a building that reflects the quality and beauty of the furniture Allwest sells within the framework of sustainable building with a mandate of achieving LEED-CI certification in Canada. Project goals include the desire to reduce consumption and wastage of materials, energy and water; maximize savings in ongoing operating costs; maximize comfort and safety of building occupants; and act as a leader in sustainable initiatives for the commercial furnishing industry in Alberta. Technologies applied include the development of high quality, low toxicity interior finishes, efficient lighting fixtures and controls, water efficient plumbing fixtures, and flexible interior spaces with the use of movable wall systems.

The AODBT office renovation is the redevelopment of the former Western Groceries warehouse in Saskatoon Saskatchewan. The vision of the project is to focus on the revitalization of not only a building, but also to be a part of the transformation of an entire neighborhood. The site is located in the Caswell Hill area of Saskatoon, which is a core neighborhood just west of the City's downtown. To assist with redevelopment of core neighborhoods, the City of Saskatoon has identified an enterprise zone within the city to encourage growth. Caswell Hill is part of the enterprise zone. As such, the City worked in collaboration with the project team on many facets of the project to ensure a successful outcome. Giving Staff a Proper Work area During the facility's design, much effort was made to ensure all staff had the proper work space to perform their daily tasks. One of the most important aspects of this was to get the right amount and type of natural light in to every employee in the building. This was achieved by a mixture of punched windows, a large feature window to the best site view, and skylights where the light is properly diverted. This combination gave the staff light from a variety of directions, along with a view of a beautiful turn of the century neighborhood. A New Look for an Old Building The majority of the building shell was kept as is, with the exception of a few punched penetrations for light. However, insulation and cladding was added to all sides of the building for esthetics and added energy efficiency. The roof was also updated, complete with a high-albedo finish to reduce the amount of heat absorption. Innovative Engineering Solutions The building's prior use did not require a high level of Mechanical or Electrical systems. As such, many upgrades are required for an office environment. Daylight harvesting technologies are planned for the facility to properly utilize the created penetrations. A highly efficient mechanical system is planned and modeling will be done to ensure the high performance and controllability of the system. Innovative methods of reducing water will also be explored, both through the use of low-flow fixtures, but also by making smart landscaping choices. The hope for any company is to give its staff the best working environment possible to increase job satisfaction. The project team and owners believe that achieving LEED accreditation is a proven way to provide a better building. As believers in the LEED process, AODBT also wishes to make this building an educational facility that can show interested parties the benefits of a LEED certified facility.

Now fourteen years old, the headquarters for the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of BC (APEG BC) sets a precedent for successful green design, particularly for superior natural lighting technologies. Architects worked along side APEG engineers in an integrated approach to design this successful space. The electrical systems maximize passive solar energies for lighting and heating. Most noticeable in appearance are precisely shaped “sails” that are suspended within the interior of the structure. These sails distribute natural and artificial light evenly into the interior space. Extensive glazing and fritted glass louvers on the east and south faces also contribute to enjoyable work space for APEG employees. READ MORE

The adoption of the Arbutus Neighbourhood Policy Plan came after an extensive public planning process and was an important first step in the implementation of the city’s policy.The Arbutus Neighbourhood Policy Plan reflects many of the key principles from Metro Vancouver’s Regional Growth Strategy. By identifying this marginal industrial land and allowing for its redevelopment by Concert Properties Ltd. into a liveable, high-density residential neighbourhood, the City directed growth into urban neighbourhoods that might otherwise have occurredas suburban sprawl.

The intent of this project is to restore this prominently located "Architectural Jewel" to its former distinctive position and function in Winnipeg's downtown core. The proposed energy upgrades includes extensive electrical and mechanical work as well as extensive upgrades and restoration to the existing building's envelope. The proposed work on the one hundred and four year old building will serve to extend the life of the building for another century. As the priceless, historically relevent elements of the building's exteriors have been restored about a decade ago, the planned interior construction will ensure the extension and continuation of the building's life cycle.

Bond Street Properties Inc. is pleased to present its proposal for the development and construction of two hi-rise residential structures to be located at the northeast corner of Morrison Street and MacDonald Avenue. The current geopolitical realities of the world have influenced and increased the level of oil sands development in the Fort McMurray region, resulting in ever-increasing pressure on the City's real estate market, as well as affording the City an unprecedented level of global prominence. Therefore, the rationale for the proposed development is supported by the following: The contemplated development will be the start of the creation of a downtown city SKYLINE that will enhance the City's international image. The overall development, which includes retail and commercial space in conjunction with the residential units, will provide an ANCHOR for the City's downtown core area. The upscale design of the development will assist in the REVITALIZATION of the downtown business district. The development will assist in alleviating the City's current HOUSING shortage. Upon completion, the development will provide a substantial increase to the City's TAX BASE. In addition to the above-stated benefits to the City of Fort McMurray, the proposed development has been carefully designed in order to ensure its quality, character, and environmental compatibility. Following is a detailed description of the salient features of the proposed development: • 274 residential units • 12,250 s.f. commercial space • 438 parking stalls (exceeds requirement by 4 stalls) • Amenity areas within the development include: Transportation marshalling area for approximately 145 persons Indoor garden atrium Outdoor seating/barbeque area On-site building manager Social room Library/reading room Business Centre Fitness Centre Theatre Room Billiard Room Internet/Games Room Guest Room Car wash bay for residents Large walkout patio areas at Podium and Podium + 2 levels Balconies for all residential units Solariums for all residential units LEEDtm certified Building (silver, possibly gold). This world-recognized sustainable building design certification represents a very positive image for the Fort McMurray oil-based economy to project to the world. The development has also been designed to conform to the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo's Lower Townsite Redevelopment Plan.
