Canada Centre Building

[4]: 36  Opened in 1985,[5] the building is most notable for its energy-conservation systems, which include one of the first successful full-scale applications of aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES).

[1][d] It is situated at the western side of a 2.2-hectare (5.4-acre) rectangular property and is twelve stories tall, with the lower two levels reserved for parking.

[2][6]: 1278  Its distinctive roofline is replicated in a blue-framed galleria structure which provides a pedestrian walkway between Scarborough Centre station and Albert Campbell Square.

[4]: 30  While excavating and drilling for the foundations in 1980–81, two potential aquifers were found, allowing an ATES system to be integrated into the design.

In 1989, the chillers were converted to heat pumps to meet cooling demand due to increased occupancy.
