MRKT, the second phase of the Revitalization of Alexandra Park in Downtown Toronto has recently topped off construction at 15 floors! The project is a two-tower mixed-use building which integrates market and community housing through the creation of shared programmatic elements: a community garden, a shared courtyard and fenced playground, an outdoor daycare play space, amenity terraces, and a public realm network that wraps around the building promoting community interaction, health, and wellness. Landscape construction is ongoing and targeted for completion in summer 2025. The project promotes a vibrant pedestrian-oriented neighbourhood that is equitable and livable. JRS has been involved since 2013 in the multi-phase, master-planned community by Tridel in strategic partnership with Toronto Community Housing.

As Canadian leaders in sports and recreation design, CS&P is thrilled to be involved in the discussion of the IAKS' Canada Group. Join us November 22 for "Letting go of the old: A new future for recreation facilities", a webinar hosted by IAKS Canada that will dive into innovative opportunities we can reimagine sports facilities for the future. As the idea of recreation expands beyond traditional competitive pursuits, the way we design these facilities needs to shift in turn to accommodate a broader range of participation and physical activity. In this webinar, Development Consultant Ola Mattsson from LOA fonden (Danish Foundation for Culture and Sport - Facilities Team Sports) will explore how the foundation is reimagining its leisure facilities to address the needs of modern society. Sharing learnings from Denmark, he will discuss an innovative approach to shift away from the competitive sports design of the past, and embrace new models that prioritize inclusivity and reflect the varied ways people engage in recreation today.

A BTS look at this week’s photoshoot at Toronto's St Clements School -- CS&P recently completed an addition and renovation to this beloved all-girls primary and secondary school. A gorgeous fall day, happy and enthusiastic students and a great team. Can't wait for the final shots!

West Niagara Secondary School is a brand new 3-storey secondary school in Beamsville, designed for 1,500 students brought together from three local high schools. Set on a former agricultural site, the design features two volumes connected by a central atrium, navigating the site’s slope. Students have access to state-of-the-art technology labs, double gymnasiums, and a stunning 750-seat theatre, all shaped through extensive collaboration with DSBN educators and the surrounding community.   Designing educational spaces in Ontario for more than 60 years has allowed us to observe the changing nature of these spaces demand more than just traditional classrooms—they seek advanced technical resources, collaborative spaces, and a higher standard of design that reflects their innovative spirit. This school embraces that vision!   With thoughtful site planning, the design of WNSS thoughtfully enables safe access for buses and parents, ample outdoor gathering spaces, and a running track. West Niagara Secondary School, as all schools should be, is a vibrant learning environment designed for the future. #westniagarasecondaryschool #publichighschool #ontariohighschooldesign #designforeducation #progressivespacesforlearning #canadiansecondaryschool #collaborationthroughdesign
