Landscape Architecture + Commercial + Retail
Metrotown Tower III and Central Boulevard
Burnaby, British Columbia | 2003-2015
We continued our role in the development of the public realm at Metropolis and Metrotower III—a project that has spanned decades.
We integrated our design with the upgraded adjacent urban plazas. We introduced a soft landscape area dedicated as a quiet place to sit and relax. A water feature with natural stone and plenty of seating surrounded by native plant palette creates a central meeting place for residents and visitors.
To give the site an immediate sense of maturity, we created a plan to move mature trees off site during construction, and replant them to make the base of the building feel established and comfortable.
