The Well is more than just a collection of buildings - it’s a testament to sustainability and innovation. Our commitment to creating a greener future is evident from the very foundation of The Well. Beneath the surface, you’ll find a groundbreaking 2M gallon thermal energy system - a result of our partnership with Enwave Energy Corporation.   At the heart of this cutting-edge system lies the impressive Chiller Room. Crafted over the course of a year, a team of 8 skilled pipe fitters meticulously constructed a maze of up to 20-inch pipes and 1200-ton chillers. This labyrinth of underground piping connects the Chiller Room directly to our massive water reservoir, located all the way down under Level 7. Yes, there is an actual well below “The Well”!   In fact, every element of our infrastructure is thoughtfully designed with sustainability in mind. The finishings throughout The Well showcase 18 tonnes of reclaimed Douglas fir, salvaged from the former buildings that once occupied this site. From bespoke sculpture furniture to soffit detailing on interlaced bridges, we’ve taken every opportunity to breathe new life into materials and create a space that is both environmentally conscious and visually captivating.   We’re proud to set a new standard for sustainable infrastructure in the city. Join us in reflecting on this achievement during Earth Month and give a nod to the skilled trades that made it possible.   #SustainableCity #Toronto #OurPlanetChallenge #SkilledTrades #EarthMonth

We are proud to announce that our Retail and Office components of The Well have received LEED Platinum Certification from the CAGBC | Canada Green Building Council.

Achieving LEED Platinum certification for commercial spaces is a further testament to the team's unwavering commitment to sustainability.
