The Atrium Project Wins Multiple Awards
The Atrium Project at 800 Yates Street in Downtown Victoria collected several awards in 2011. The CRD honoured the project with an EcoStar award in the category of “Integrated Stormwater Management”. The award description states:
800 Yates - The Atrium Building
“…The boulevard plantings manage pollution, slow and reduce runoff, create a green buffer between pedestrians and streets, reduce heat island effects, calm traffic and provide a rain water management educational opportunity.
Jawl Investment Corporation, going above and beyond most stormwater bylaw requirements, has created a multi-facetted environment that enhances landscape and aesthetic value while also improving environmental conditions.” (click here to view project award video)
The Atrium building also collected two Commercial Building awards from the Victoria Real Estate Board. The first was top prize for Commercial Buildings – the overall “Excellence Award”, which was followed up by the Judge’s Choice Award. (view VREB Awards here)
