What do you get when you combine ocean-powered energy, recycled history, and a previously vacant contaminated site? One of the coolest eco-friendly hotels in St. John’s, Newfoundland!
This once-forgotten brownfield is now a sustainable hotel designed with the planet in mind — and it’s making waves in more ways than one:
- Modular construction = less waste, less noise, and a smaller footprint
- Geothermal heating & cooling powered by the ocean
- Smart heat recovery systems & automated central switches
- A boost to the local economy and a win for downtown revitalization
Led by Groupe Germain and Stantec Consulting Ltd., this project proves that thoughtful design can clean up the past and build a greener future. This project won a 2022 Brownie Award, find out more here.
