Voting is now open for the 2018 Mississauga Urban Design People’s Choice Awards – a contest that recognizes functional and engaging building design in urban communities – and the Meadowvale Community Centre and Library is among the impressive list of 2018

This LEED Silver Certified facility is a community centre, a library, and a recreation complex in one highly sustainable building. The design team was driven to create a versatile centre that would engage every member of the community while also incorporating sustainable building practices. Smith + Andersen’s mechanical, electrical, and lighting consultants incorporated several LEED initiatives into the building, including a rain water cistern, low flow plumbing fixtures, and a staged heat recovery system that supports pool area dehumidification. A building automation system reduces energy consumption by monitoring occupancy and operating trends, and automatically adjusts the lighting, heating, and ventilation levels to meet the changing needs of each space. A high-efficiency condensing boiler plant, fluorescent and LED lighting, and heat recovery systems work together to further reduce the electrical load throughout the 85,000 square foot facility.
