Okay.... I know, it's been months since my last update but it's been a busy time.....resolution for 2011 is to do this more often! So, as a catch up, here are the exciting things that are happening!
The Metropia Condominium project is closer to reality than ever...reports from the developer are that construction will be in full swing this spring; this exciting development features high end luxury condos in a exciting and up-and-coming Ottawa neighbourhood. Watch here for more info! www.metropialiving.ca

At the same time, 360 Lofts Condo continues in the Byward Market. We're excited to see this project finally take shape! www.360lofts.ca for more info. DA was also pleased to be invited to present this project as an innovative use of wood construction at the Canada Wood Council fall WoodWorks Conference in Toronto in the fall of 2010. We were hoping to present this project along, with the structural and acoustical engineers at the spring 2011 OAA conference but, alas, this didn't pan out.
DA is excited to be a part of some new and exciting projects:
The Orleans Veterinary Hospital located at the corner of Innes and Tenth Line Roads in Ottawa's east end will be expanding to a new facility located on the same property; right now, we're developing concepts, but watch for more news soon!
We are working with the developer for a project in Navan to finally get into construction this summer for the Navan Mixed Use project; this development will feature 4 residential apartments and 2 commerical tenants in a modestly scaled and high quality building, located in the Village of Navan. Watch for the construction to start soon!
DA is also excited to be working with members of the community to develop sites in Little Italy (Preston Street), the Byward Market, and in Kanata for some exciting new possibilities. These are all secret for now but watch for more news later!

Stone & Feather
DA recently had occasion to slip out of Ottawa and spend a weekend in Kansas City, MO. While there, we spent a day at the Nelson-Atkins Museum and were stunned by the incredible craft of the addition, completed in 2007, by Steven Holl Architects. The entire addition, likened to an 11 storey building on its side, glows at night, thanks to the exterior walls being constructed of cast glass... the building is stunningly crafted, exquisite in it's construction and conception and, truly, a wonder to behold. http://www.nelson-atkins.org/ for more information. This is absolutely worth traveling to Kansas for.
