Located at 20 Swells Road in the Malvern Community in Scarborough, this project saw the creation of a 92 new units affordable housing. It consists of approximately 92,000 SF of building on a city owned site, and was completed in 2006.
The building is configured as a four storey transitional and family housing apartment building with 2-storey ground-related units, worship space and associated amenity areas provided with partial below grade parking and extensive landscaping.
We developed the project from concept to start of construction, including site plan application and committee of adjustment, in approximately one year. The building incorporates an energy efficient design and envelope, recipient of CBIP funding.
On November 6, 2006 our 20 Sewells Road affordable housing project for Wigwamen Inc. was the recipient of a Best Practices in Affordable Housing award from CMHC.
