SACKVILLE-DUNDAS APARTMENTS
The design of the Sackville-Dundas Apartments addresses issues that are fundamental to Regent Park’s revitalization – the accommodation of diverse housing types and income levels; the articulation of a convincing and urbane response to density; the enrichment of the Public Realm; and the integration of sustainable design principles.
Two conventional, “as-of-right” building types – a Point Tower and Mid-rise Apartment – are combined with a raised Garden Court and roof gardens to create a landmark with a strong sense of address and identity, with a maximum number of ground-related family units, a variety of landscaped outdoor spaces, and a high degree of amenity for every resident.
Sackville-Dundas, is the first capital project in a 15-year, multi-phase redevelopment of the entire Regent Park community. The Apartments have been designed to meet LEED® Gold criteria, with planted roofs, stormwater retention and management systems, energy-efficient appliances, and a power co-generation plant that will serve the entire 70-acre Regent Park community.
