Opened in May of 2018, City Centre 2 is the latest envisioned component of Lark Group’s Health and Technology District. The 185,000 square foot LEED Gold building sits just north of Surrey Memorial Hospital and is part of the rapidly growing health and technology sector in B.C.
As one of the first high-rises constructed in the fast-growing Tysons unincorporated area of Fairfax County, Va., Adaire, a mixed-use residential community, stands out not only for its 35 stories towering into the sky but for its striking ellipsoidal design and modern facade.
A building, particularly on a college campus, can serve as an epicenter for creative and innovative collaboration. The purpose of the Jacobs Institute for Design Innovation, according to the architects at Leddy Maytum Stacy (LMS Arch), “…is to re-energize design and manufacturing innovation at the national level, honing the integrated set of skills students will need to create an abundant, sustainable future.”

The new 12-story, 183,000 square foot City Centre 1 (CC1) building is part of a large development by Lark Group to create a Health and Technology District in downtown Surrey, BC. Located across from the Surrey Memorial Hospital the CCI building, designed by Wensley Architecture, houses 90 medical and technology specialists. Additionally, the first floor features 16,000 square feet of retail space, restaurants and an on-site gym.
The new Leed Gold Jubilee House is a collaboration of high-achieving builders, architects, engineers, fabricators, and interior designers building a quality design on a limited budget. It greatly helps the quality of the design that the new low-income senior living facility is positioned on a particularly valuable piece of Vancouver real estate. Gray and charcoal Alucobond 4mm aluminum composite paneling make up a substantial portion of the façade and plays a major role in providing durable and maintenance-free design elements.
The Marine Gateway mixed-use development officially opened this spring in south Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, as the first major transit-oriented development integrated into Vancouver’s Canada Line rapid transit rail system. It’s also served by the South Vancouver Bus Loop.
