The YWCA Residential Building includes a child care centre, and was built to house single women and women with children. The facility is a 4-storey, 68-unit building that offers 1, 2, 3, and 4 bedroom apartments, occupying 74,370 square feet, with a structural steel frame and HAMBRO floor system. The project required community consultation with local residents to overcome ongoing opposition and a successful OPA and rezoning.
“Aquicon’s staff worked with us to make the project a success, contributing to a positive, team-like atmosphere during construction.”
Steve Hilditch, Principal, Hilditch Architect
