Toronto Artscape Inc.

Wychwood Barns

The Dalton Company was hired as Construction Manager to convert an early-20th century streetcar repair and maintenance facility located in a dense, residential neighbourhood in downtown Toronto into a mixed-use centre for artists and environmental organizations called Artscape Wychwood Barns. The project involved renovating four facilities and ensuring compatibility of the structures with heritage principles and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Canada Certification. The 60,000 square-foot facility consists of 26 live/work housing units, 15 work studios for local artists, a series of community spaces for arts and environmental groups, and a greenhouse and sheltered garden. The project was recognized with several awards, including a LEED Canada Gold Award, an ARIDO Award, a Canadian Green Building Award, and the City of Toronto Green Design Awards.
