Announcement: New Mississauga Ontario-based Warehouse Centre

TORONTO (May 9, 2016) – Ware Malcomb, an award-winning international design firm, today announced construction is complete on Mississauga Gateway Centre in the greater Toronto area. The new Class-A office complex, which is seeking LEED® Gold Certification, offers retail and corporate leasing opportunities in a contemporary design. The project is located at One Prologis Boulevard and Hurontario Street in Mississauga, Ontario.  Ware Malcomb provided architectural design services for the project, as well as graphic design services and signage throughout the building.

The Mississauga Gateway Centre design features a five-storey, nearly 150,000 square foot office building and a separate single-storey, 45,000 square foot office building. The larger building takes advantage of the urban context by sitting close to the main boulevard and allowing opportunity for ground floor retail tenants accessed from both the parking side and street side of the building. A subtle curve in the facade design provides a dynamic face to the boulevard. The facade is composed of composite metal panel and translucent glass with precast clad concrete columns. The interior lobby design, also by Ware Malcomb, continues the contemporary feel of the exterior through the use of a similar material palette.

“The dynamic, contemporary design of these buildings brings a striking new visual appeal to the boulevard,” said Frank Di Roma, Regional Director of Ware Malcomb’s Toronto office. “At the same time, the Mississauga Gateway Centre provides an exciting new option for Class A corporate office space and ground floor retail space to the surrounding area.”

The general contractor for the project is BelRock Design Build and the developer is HOOPP Realty Inc., a subsidiary of Canadian-based pension fund Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan (HOOPP).
