17.Falling Brook Loft Residences
Falling Brook is a proposed 6 storey mixed use residential/commercial condominium at the northwest corner of Fallingbrook and Kingston Road. Falling Brook has been designed to meet the City's urban intensification plan with sensitivity to the surrounding built form. The building terraces back as it goes up, blending into the existing residential fabric while maintaining a human scale at ground level. The terracing feature also provides all residential units with private roof terraces and the building orientation on the site means that all units either face the Lake or Blantyre Park. In addition to being extremely energy efficient, it is to be constructed in a manner sensitive to the natural environment, with attention given to recycling of demolition and construction waste, managing stormwater runoff, using local resources, supporting alternative transportation, and reducing heat island affects and CO2 emissions. The existing hydrocarbon contaminated site is being rehabilitated prior to the start of construction. The building incorporates an array of environmentally friendly features, from a passive green roof to abundant daylighting and low energy lighting, water efficient fixtures, individually controlled ultra high efficiency heating systems, environmentally safe low VOC emission building materials, superior thermal insulation and a host of building design features to minimize energy consumption, with ongoing monitoring to allow the residents to continue with the energy and conservation initiatives incorporated into the design.
18.Westside Lofts
Westside Lofts is a new loft project located in former industrial lands of the Queen West Triangle. Future residents of Westside Lofts will enjoy this emergent Queen Street West district, newly revitalized by The Drake Hotel, art galleries, shops, and restaurants. The project consists 414 loft units in two mid-rise buildings that share a central terraced landscape area. Its common amenity area is celebrated in a centrally located, three storey high space. Suites within the building are designed to emphasize the flexibility and breadth of the 3 m high loft interiors. All partitions, within the unit, are 7'6" to mazimize the open feel of the loft. The unit designs consolidate the kitchen and washroom into a freestanding pod that maximizes the live, sleep and work areas of the loft. All live-work units at grade are directly accessible to the exterior through their own door. The exterior elevations employ full-height, floor-to-ceiling glazing throughout to amplify available natural illumination and ventilation. A series of coloured, vertical fins, distributed across the elevation provide a unique identity for the project and serve as an external shading device for the large area of glazing.

24.Thomas L. Wells Public School
Thomas L. Wells Public School is designed as a terrain for engagement with learning, society and the environment. The layout of classrooms grouped around courtyards, a central library, and multipurpose room, maximizes green space on the compact site and provides a transparent, stimulating place of growth for young learners as well as civic community for surrounding residents. Conceived as a 'system of systems,' the building integrates architectural design with environmental performance. Classrooms are laid out to maximize solar exposure and their facades designed for daylighting effectiveness and sun control. Light shelves shade high summer sun and reflect low winter sun deep into the building. A combination of high and low window vents provides effective passive ventilation as an alternative to mechanical cooling and sensors turn off unneeded classroom lights. The pre-cast concrete floor and masonry structure provide thermal mass to harvest winter solar energy and retard summer heat buildup and are an integral part of the unique displacement air ventilation and radiant floor heating system. Heat in the return air stream is recovered in the central plant along with free heat from bathroom and service room exhaust. Durable materials used throughout promote long term sustainability as well as indoor air quality
