The layout of the new lobby is premised on a more efficient circulation scheme than in the old lobby. Service hub programming is carefully differentiated from the lobby area, while the design uses gentle curvature to create direct lines of sight from the vestibule to the elevator bank. In the middle, a new secure entrance, intercom, and security desk provide a level of enhanced safety. The lobby has been provided with an upgraded universal tenant washroom. As well, corridor and door widths have been increased to meet Toronto Community Housing’s accessibility standards. The mail area has been reoriented to allow easier access for mobility impaired tenants. The lighting and finish scheme throughout enable calm, uniform illumination and contrastive brightness where necessary. A durable material palette — at once dignified and robust to take the wear and tear of daily use — completes this dramatically enhanced facility.
