The building's distinctive floorplates create unique, spacious end-user units with adjacent terraces, providing an attractive alternative to single-family homes. Targeting Toronto Green Standard Tier Two, the design pushes for optimal sustainability, with the design stage energy model demonstrating remarkable energy savings of over 50% compared to a Code-compliant building.
