181 The West Mall, developed by Starlight Investments, is a tenant-focused advanced workplace building with exceptional exposure and access to Toronto’s Highway 427, linking the downtown core to Toronto Pearson International Airport. The 200,000 s.f. office building includes the latest workplace technology to support occupant health, comfort and productivity including underfloor air distribution with individual use-control for cleaner and fresher air, full-height panoramic glazing, and operable windows. The top floor features a double-height workspace level with extraordinary views of the city and Lake Ontario. An amenity level includes a flexible indoor multi-purpose space and large landscaped terraces at the north, south and east sides of the building offering private alternative workspaces and outdoor amenity areas. The multi-storey building lobby provides an internal connection to all below-grade and above-grade parking levels and offers a café that opens to a south-facing landscaped patio. The building is targeting LEED Gold and features high-performance energy and water conservation measures such as optimized heat-recovery and the use of rainwater and filtered groundwater for plumbing fixtures. 181 The West Mall will be a progenitor project setting a new standard for workplace performance, occupant comfort and wellness in Toronto’s west-end commercial area.
