Designed by Turner Fleischer Architects and constructed by Maple Reinders, this 330,000 sq. ft. automated food distribution hub balances high-tech logistics with sensitive ecological stewardship.

The landscaping, led by Brodie & Associates, focuses on the site’s integration into the Carruthers Creek watershed. Key features include dense perimeter screening and specialized Species at Risk (SAR) mitigation strategies developed by Beacon Environmental. The design specifically prioritizes bat conservation through the installation of compensatory habitat and native restoration plantings, ensuring industrial efficiency coexists with local biodiversity.
