Telus Tower is going to be one of the first new towers constructed in Toronto in a long time. It could also be one of the most technologically advanced towers in Canada. Using the LEED certification system as a guideline for design, the Telus Tower will pursue Silver level certification. It's expected to cost about $250 M to build, with about 30 stories comprising 780,000 sf of office space. Telus will occupy about 60% of the building when it is completed by the beginning of 2009.
In addition to the LEED elements, Telus Tower is going to be a showcase of "Future Friendly™" Technology in both building automation systems and tenant environments. This will include floor-to-ceiling windows, raised floors for underfloor distribution of hot/cool air, and state-of-the-art communications cabling and electrical power.
Great images and photos. Cool buildings. Cant wait for towers like this in Bucharest! So, what if the tendency here is for flip phones instead of walkie talkies?
