About

A former parking courtyard becomes a garden linked to shared amenities and new entrance lobbies.

Interior openings and staircases connect office floors, while roof terraces add outdoor space. The project retains much of the existing structure and reuses damaged granite in new façade material.

Sustainability

Seventy per cent of the existing structure and foundations are kept, and granite from the old façade is ground into the new façade panels. The offices are certified LEED Platinum and WELL Platinum.
