Architecture Building Culture

Works Progress Architecture (W.PA) and Architecture Building Culture (ABC) are incredibly excited to be collaborating with Central City Concern on a new affordable, supportive housing project in the heart of Old Town. The W.PA / ABC team includes DCI Engineers (structural), PAE (MEP), Vega Civil Engineers (civil), and WerkSTADT (landscape). Walsh Construction Co. is the general contractor. The project will replace the existing Westwind Apartments building with 100 new units o...f deeply affordable SRO and studio housing, combined with extensive supportive services and amenities, and immediate access to Central City Concerns (CCC) network of medical and social services throughout Old Town. The interior programming will deliver (72) seventy-two efficient Single Room Occupancy (SRO) and (28) twenty-eight studio units, with ample shared amenities and gathering space to elevate community interaction for residents and supportive services staff in the building. The majority of residents will be individuals transitioning from homelessness and experiencing a disabling condition. The project further prioritizes communities who are overrepresented in Portlands homeless population through service partnerships and CCCs culturally specific programming.

Howard Residence, 2018 West Vancouver, British Columbia, Ryan White Awards: 2019 Merit Award - Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia Award in Architecture, Architectural Foundation of British Columbia... 2019 Honor Award, AIA Northwest & Pacific Region Design Awards 2019 Citation Award, AIA Oregon - Portland Architecture Awards Photography: Andrew Latreille #architecture #design #westvancouver #residentialdesign #residentialarchitecture

We are honored to announce that the Howard Residence located in West Vancouver, British Columbia has been awarded a 2019 Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia Award in Architecture Merit Level. The winners of the 2019 AFBC Architectural Awards were announced at a ceremony held on November 4, 2019. Eight awards were presented in four categories, representing outstanding and exceptional work from the architectural community in British Columbia. Projects hailed from across ...the province and around the world from an art gallery in North Vancouver, to an opera house in Hong Kong, and a place of contemplation in Kootenay Bay. While there was an impressive range of projects, the calibre of each building elevated the built environment in a significant and substantial way. Debuting this year, the Architecture Foundation of B.C. (AFBC) hosted the awards program, with interim assistance from the AIBC, who previously ran the program. Transferring the program to the AFBC was made possible given a revitalized relationship between the two organizations whose mandates are separate and distinct. Raising awareness of architecture and design is one of the Foundations goals, so taking on the Architectural Awards Program was a perfect fit, shared Architecture Foundation of B.C. chair Veronica Gillies. The recipients awarded at this years ceremony certainly speak to excellence in the built environment across the province, as well as abroad. The Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia Awards in Architecture recognize excellence in completed architectural projects led or designed by AIBC members.
