The development includes three residential buildings, a practice hall, an exhibition hall, and a traditional Chinese temple. The buildings were sited to respect the stringent requirements of the Niagara Escarpment Commission and are designed to reflect the philosophy of the Taoist society.
“The project was completed on time and on budget due in large to the professionalism of Strasman Architects Inc. The Drawings were clear, complete and well coordinated. They responded quickly to the site conditions and client requests. They remained open to suggestions by both the client and the contractor.”
David Kimmerle, President of Berkim Construction
