Signage rights to the building are available on the modern facade above Market Street, facing north and east. There are two more highly visible free-standing billboard sites on Queen Street available.
Guest lobby
To streamline the check-in process and enhance security measures, we have implemented an automated kiosk sign-in facility. This ensures that we have a record of all visitors on-site for WorkSafe and security purposes. As an added convenience, our security system promptly alerts you via email when your visitor arrives, notifying you that they are waiting in the reception area for you to meet them. This efficient system allows for seamless coordination and ensures a smooth and professional experience for both you and your guests.
Recycling station
We are committed to making sustainable practices easier by promoting re-use and recycling initiatives.
To encourage the use of re-usable packaging and utensils, we provide two under-bench dishwashers. These convenient facilities enable you and your team to easily clean and re-use items, reducing the reliance on disposable alternatives. Additionally, we have implemented a dedicated recycling station to streamline the process of doing your part for the environment.
By offering these amenities and promoting sustainable practices, we aim to support businesses in their efforts to make a positive environmental impact while ensuring that being eco-friendly is convenient and hassle-free.
