CLV Group Development Inc. is proposing the adaptive reuse of an existing 11-storey commercial/office building located at 360 Laurier Avenue West. The 11-storey building (not including 1 storey mechanical penthouse) will remain on site and undergo a renovation to convert it into a residential building. The mechanical penthouse area is proposed to be enlarged for rooftop amenities bringing the height to 12 storeys. A new mechanical penthouse, improvements to the façade, streetscape and interior of the building are also proposed.
The conversion will consist of 139 residential units, 133 square metres (1,451 square feet) of commercial space in the form of a rental leasing office and a general retail space (. The unit mix will include studios, one (1) bedroom, one plus den (1.5), two (2) bedroom and two (2) plus den units. The objective for this proposal is to utilize as much of the existing building to make the project as sustainable as possible by reducing waste. The majority of the existing precast concrete panels will be maintained, lessening the architectural intervention while still adding subtle touches to add visual interest. As noted above, an additional level will be added which will strictly be used for amenity purposes. No residential units will be located on level 12. Amenities will be provided on the ground floor and rooftop level in the form of interior and exterior spaces.
The proposal will utilize the existing underground parking structure containing 59 vehicular parking spaces of which 13 will be used for visitor parking. The development will yield a total of 78 bicycle parking spaces.
