LEED Gold (In Progress)

The Cedar Cottage Neighbourhood House has served the residents
of East Vancouver since 1964. The success of the program has
led to replacing the aging building with a much larger state-of-art
neighbourhood house. The new facility will support an expanded Adult
Day Program, 37 capacity childcare and a variety of community support
activities.


In consultation with a series of stakeholder groups, the design
is welcoming, flexible and reflects the diverse cultures of the
neighbourhood. The 3-storey building is sculpted to relate to the
single-family housing surrounding the centre, as well as to maintain a
pedestrian scale. It is slated to achieve LEED gold certification to be
rated a low carbon building.
