Update January 2023
2022 was a busy year.
We completed land clearing, excavation & blasting, and forming.
We’re currently working on finishing the foundation and building envelope, and in 2023 we’ll be working on the interior, landscaping and finally, occupancy!
In the last quarter of 2022, we poured slabs for floors including a portion of suspended slab for the main floor.
Roughwork in the basement was completed, and the framing started in December 2022.
Next steps include:
- Complete work in basement
- Continue framing
- Work on building envelope
Here is the designer’s idea of the completed structure with landscaping: It’s a sunny day with children running on the lawn, an outdoor exercise class in progress and islanders are wondering the paths around the building. On the neighbouring lot, the BICS soccer field can be seen with a game in progress.
Step inside your new Community Centre, bustling with neighbours, family and friends.
On the left is the registration desk where you can:
- Get tickets for a show
- Buy a gym subscription
- Inquire about program availability
- Book a meeting room
- Sign the family up for activities
On the right is a large community lounge where you can:
- Take a load off and enjoy a comfortable seat
- Check your email while you wait for the kids to finish a program
- Socialise with other parents and caregivers
Head down the corridor to find the rooms for playcare, indoor programming, exercise classes, weight lifting, washrooms, showers and more.
