Located in the core of Victoria’s downtown, across the street from the Atrium, the purpose-built mixed-use development contains ground floor retail with 209 rental apartments above. It has a very intricate exterior design and includes three levels of underground parking, a rooftop deck as well as a communal patio area on level 12 that features a custom kitchen.
This is Chard Development’s 7th consecutive project in Victoria since 2003, and the project has been pre-sold to Realstar – a major Canadian investment group and operator who will own and manage the rental suites.
There were areas of the construction that required Atlas to provide a detail that compensated for the build-up on parapet walls. CST pedestals were used in a horizontal application as a spacer to get solid bearing on the concrete and still keep the anchor flush with the finished wall material. Eliminating any damage to the wall when anchors are in use.

Seaspan New Head Office, North Vancouver BC
Seaspan New Head Office
10 Pemberton Avenue, North Vancouver
The 8-storey 84,000 sf new corporate headquarters will house 350 Seaspan staff, up from current 130, from across its various companies. It includes state-of-art office space, meeting rooms, expanded bike storage, electric vehicle charging station, and a full service cafeteria. The building incorporates a number of green building standards such as passive heating and reduced water use.
The project is part of the National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy (NSPS), which also includes the $170 million Shipyard Modernization Project, as it gears up to build 17 non-combat ships for the federal government.
Atlas worked closely with the GC to establish a functional window cleaning system for the East façade of the building. The challenge was, the façade was directly over the water and when there is a high tide, the landing for a window cleaner is non-existent. Atlas proposed 2 access and egress hatches at the North and South ends of the landing on level 2 so that the window cleaner could exit the ledge once at the bottom, without entering the water. A custom, under hung, aluminum beam was also fabricated to address the overhang on the East Façade. The beam allows for a window cleaner to be within reaching distance of the glazing that is located directly under the overhang.

North Cariboo Arena / West Fraser Centre
500 Barlow Avenue, Quesnel, BC
The brand new $20.6m North Cariboo Arena is to replace Quesnel’s existing downtown-based main arena which has reached the end of its lifespan after 60 years. The new arena is equipped with an NHL size ice surface, seating for 1,300 people, meeting rooms, and a concession. The adjacent ice plant is still in place, forming the Twin Arenas known by the locals.
West Fraser Mills, a local lumber company, was given the naming rights for a donation of $500,000 with the commitment of matching another $500,000 donation from the community.
The main challenge of the project is to keep the existing arena in place until the new arena is complete. This allows the city to maintain two ice sheets simultaneously to prevent any ice time shortages or issues for the local clubs and teams.
The roof structure is comprised of curved steel girder trusses bearing on battered concrete columns. Wood components have been integrated into the design in the form of CLT panels for the main lobby roof structure, and a wood slat ceiling assembly in the main arena.

Crown Residential, Coquitlam BC
Crown Residential
520 Como Lake Ave, Coquitlam
The opening of Metro Vancouver’s $1.4B Evergreen Line Skytrain extension in 2017 boosts high-density development at the line’s suburban stations, making the Tri-Cities region more attractive to developers and new residents. Thousands of units were under development while the SkyTrain was under construction.
Among them the 26 storeys 180 units project is developed by Vancouver iconic Beedie Development Group. The building is angled to allow more units to take advantage of available views. It is close to Simon Fraser University, and just one block from the Skytrain station and five minutes from the hiking trails of Burnaby Mountain.
The owners of this building felt that the longboard soffit was one of this project’s key features in the design of the building. By using a combination of monorail and underhung beams we were able to minimize the penetrations to the longboard soffit below the upper roof and maintain its beauty.
