The Little Mountain Reservoir located in Queen Elizabeth Park, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada was originally constructed as an open
basin in 1910 and a roof structure was added in the mid 1960s. Because of seismic and structural deficiencies of the structure, it was decided to demolish the reservoir and construct a new one on the same site wi...[more] |

Cedar Corner is a LEED-registered restaurant and brewpub in Tofino, BC. The building owners decided that the building should be a showcase for green design, which led to the building being constructed out of recycled timber, water and energy efficient fixtures and designs, and non toxic building materials. A goal of 50% fly ash substitution was tar...[more] |
