Project
Description:
The 4-story mixed-use building comprises 3 stories of offices
and a 4th story of residential. There are 2 levels of
underground parking and additional on-grade parking. Solid
stone-clad walls and columns mark the perimeter of the site
at the ground floor; the entrance to the building is through
a formal courtyard. As this building is located on Lytton Avenue in
a transition zone between commercial buildings and residential
uses, the architectural expression is contemporary without
being harshly modern.
The
building incorporates Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design features for Shell/Core structures (LEED-CS), for which it
was awarded LEED Gold status. These features include
photovoltaic cells that are integrated into the 4th floor
roof. The aluminum-frame windows are deeply recessed and are glazed
with high performance double glazing units.
