On a site bound by Liberty on the north, Fraser on the east and Mowat on the west, York Heritage and its partner, Adgar Investments & Development Inc., have plans to construct a building of more than 300,000 square feet of office accommodation on floor plates of up to 30,000 square feet.

High Ceilings
To allow introduction of mezzanines, raised floors, and imaginative, individuated design. Companies today know that to project integrity to customers and employees, they must “live the brand”. It is extremely difficult to create environments that reflect one’s corporate culture in an eight foot six inch high enclosure.
Operable Windows
No single amenity speaks more elegantly in favour of personal choice than a window that one can open. Nothing feels more confining than being stuck in a hermetically sealed box.
Imaginative Fenestration
To suit view and adjacent use. Does it make sense to anyone to design windows facing the lake to be the same size and shape as windows facing the building next door?
Balconies
Plentiful, generous and varied to allow a variety of uses.
Public Areas
Designed to promote networking. To enhance employee efficiency and enjoyment, lobbies should be a “collision zone”. Alcoves should be “huddle rooms”, places to meet for privacy away from the office, to grab a snack, provide day care or forms of entertainment.
Amenities will be Reminiscent of Home
Lobby furniture, pictures, décor, building materials are planned to ease the burden of long days at the office.
Campus-Style Site Plan
A six storey building with up to 30,000 square foot floor plates surrounding a courtyard large enough for playground equipment and outdoor furniture. The indoor-outdoor connection is obvious from the time one approaches the building to the time one leaves.
The public areas and the campus-style site plan promote interaction. Spaces that promote interaction continue to be important, not from just a business 'serendipity' point of view, but from a need amongst employees to establish a community. Because there is a lack of community in most suburban and urban areas, people seek it at their place of employment.
Environmental Friendliness
Will be obvious from such things as “green roof” and the building materials selected. Generation Y is now entering the workforce, and this generation understands about environmental sustainability.
Grand Staircase
From lobby to lower floors.
Underground Parking
That receives natural light from open wells that are large enough to make users feel connected to the outdoors. Automobile aisles will feel like interior roads, and pedestrian routes will feel like well lit sidewalks.
IT
As part of Toronto’s most wired community, the buildings will feature extremely fast, secure and economical connectivity, and a state-of-the-art cable distribution system. Wireless connectivity is now accessible throughout Liberty Village.
