In short, the function and design of Ottawa Street YWCA is informed by the needs of the community. When you said you wanted more community space in the neighbourhood, we incorporated two new community spaces into the design of our new building – one indoors, one outdoors. When you said you wanted a building that was highly sustainable and aesthetically beautiful, we partnered with Kearns Mancini Architects, leaders in Passive House design, who delivered a concept that integrates smoothly and thoughtfully into the surrounding neighbourhood.
