Objectives and benefits
This project considers GoC priorities, including:
• Making the complex more environmentally sustainable: inspired by the Government of Canada’s commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we are leading by example by greening our own operations. Specifically, once renewed, the PDP3 complex will be net-zero carbon and meet Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold requirements. We will also install a new energy-efficient building envelope and increasing the insulation in the walls and roofs, and will install new bird-friendly triple-pane windows. These features will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 24% compared to 2017 levels.
• Making the complex more accessible and inclusive: we will install numerous accessibility features such as accessible entrances to the atrium at the heart of the building, and more, and reflect the principles of the Accessible Canada Act, including universal accessibility and Gender-based Analysis Plus (GBA+) measures.
• Indigenous partnership: we will integrate Indigenous design elements that will enrich the building and pay homage to the human history of the site. The project also includes an Indigenous Architecture firm that provides input as an integral part of designing the renewed building.
• Jobs: Over the span of eight years, the project is expected to generate about 13,300 direct, indirect and induced person years of employment.
• Commerce and community: Once renewed, the complex will integrate with its downtown surroundings. It will facilitate mobility, transit, and access to nearby businesses and municipal facilities.
