2015 VIREB Commercial Building Awards On behalf of the Commercial Division of the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board (VIREB), welcome to the Eighth Annual Commercial Building Awards, for projects completed in 2014.

Congratulations to all finalists and all of those nominated.

The Commercial Division of VIREB, now into its 10th year, is dedicated to the advancement of excellence in commercial development to encourage a better environment within our community.

Following the great successes of our first seven Commercial Building Awards, VIREB’s Commercial Division committed once again to continuing the gala celebration, which really is an excellent way to recognize and honour the best in commercial buildings north of the Malahat on Vancouver Island.

Derek Costantino Chair, Commercial Building Awards

Special thanks to Title Platinum Sponsor, RE/MAX Commercial; our Gold Sponsors: Coastal Community Credit Union and Colliers International; our Category Sponsors: Business Development Bank; Canadian Western Bank; DTZ Nanaimo; Invest Comox Valley; MNP LLP: Nanaimo Economic Development Corporation; RBC Royal Bank; and for the first year, the Vancouver Island Construction Association.

Once again, the interest in our Commercial Building Awards has been very strong.

We received a very high number of individual nominations from all VIREB zones, including the Comox Valley, Cowichan Valley, Parksville-Qualicum Beach, Port Alberni and Nanaimo.

To be eligible for nomination, an investment, commercial, multi-family or industrial building, development or renovation project had to have been completed between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014.

The challenge of naming the award winners went to our team of independent judges, selected from the professional and development industries. They actually traveled to the various communities to see the projects first-hand.

The criteria required a building or renovation project to complement the surrounding properties and area, be esthetically pleasing, include unique architectural features, and answer a specific development need within the community. The level of finish and choice in construction materials was also a determining factor, as was any environmentally friendly or green elements for possible consideration.

We are very excited about the high level of quality development underway all over Vancouver Island.

Tonight, we are proud to showcase such excellence!

Thanks again for coming.

This project is the first building in western Canada built to the new Hyundai corporate design, known as “Global Dealership Space Identity (GDSI) Transition”. This is one of two buildings in all of Canada. This design incorporates the new colour scheme which transcends from the familiar blue and white to a new dark bronze and chrome theme. This transition was implemented after construction had begun, thus a number of fast track changes had to be made to still deliver the building on time.

The inevitable destiny of this property was locking the doors and abandoning the building. By revitalizing this property, it has turned into a very upscale modern office, centrally located in a residential neighbourhood of the community.

This project deserves recognition as it created a state of the art facility that serves as a valuable resource to the community. The Sensory building provides a therapeutic environment for children with developmental disabilities. The building needed to have a small footprint; to maximize limited space, yet needed to be functional and child friendly. The Sensory building successfully achieved all of these things. In addition, the project was really a community effort.

The addition of architecturally relevant details include a picturesque lighthouse, dormers, rooflines and covered walkway.

General Contractor

Although this is a corporate “fast food restaurant,” the site imposed certain restrictions on finishes and materials that could be used. This required McDonald’s and their architect to stray from their corporate image scheme. The outcome is a unique combination of their traditional materials mixed with more earthy/west coast design materials such as rough cedar and river stone. Most importantly, the building complements the neighbourhood.
