The new portfolio includes two offerings that help enterprise companies understand activities within their spaces, gain access to deep analytics and leverage visualizations and application software to improve workflows and space utilization. The offerings include:

• Data Services: A set of data APIs and visualizations around three primary areas of value:
  • Occupancy Insights, including new people-counting capabilities to help understand how space is being used and inform decisions around portfolio sizing and space design

Gordon and Leslie Diamond donate a historic $25M, as the community matches it with another $25M

VANCOUVER, British Columbia–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Announced today, the Diamond Foundation has generously donated $25 million to JWest’s capital campaign, which aims to raise $125+ million. This matching gift is the first philanthropic contribution to the project and is the largest donation ever made by the Diamond Foundation. The Diamonds’ gift has a significant impact on the plans to transform the 3.3-acre property at West 41st and Oak Street in Vancouver, BC.

The Diamond Foundation’s effort leads the way in contributing to the most extensive project in the history of the Jewish community in Western Canada. The project, which is estimated to cost $400+ million, will be brought to life through philanthropy, government funding and astute financing, and will provide an invaluable and welcoming social, cultural, recreational and educational asset for all.

“We are pleased to be the first family to make a significant contribution to JWest’s capital campaign. Our family has called Vancouver home for almost a century, and we have always believed in contributing whatever we can to ensure there is a bright future for our children and their children,” say Gordon and Leslie Diamond, honorary JWest campaign co-chairs and members of the Diamond Foundation’s board.

Today’s announcement builds on the $25 million funding provided in 2021 by the B.C. government.

“Mazel tov! I’m so pleased that our government’s shared mandate commitment of $25 million and a $400,000 investment in redevelopment planning has been bolstered with philanthropic support from the Diamond Foundation and community,” says Melanie Mark, Hli Haykwhl Ẃii Xsgaak, minister of tourism, arts, culture and sport. “These generous contributions underscore the importance of a renewed Jewish Community Centre to 22,590 Jews and all people living in this community. It speaks to the power of working together to shine a light on our province’s diversity and inclusion.”

Once complete, the initiative will provide much-needed programs and services in the Oakridge neighbourhood. The JWest project will deliver a state-of-the-art community centre, expanded space for the Vancouver Holocaust Education Centre, a new theatre, a relocated King David High School and two residential towers that will provide mixed-use rental housing (a portion of which will be below-market rates). The development, with multiple construction phases, will also double the current number of childcare spaces and expand seniors’ programming.

“JWest is the amalgamation of decades of work, and the fact that we saw our gift matched so quickly sends a clear signal that the community stands behind this project,” says Jill Diamond, executive director of the Diamond Foundation. “The Diamond Foundation has had a unifying focus to assist and advocate for initiatives in the Vancouver area that help improve the quality of people’s lives. The impact JWest will have on the Jewish community and the surrounding Oakridge community is undeniable.”

JWest is the redevelopment and transformation of the property that includes the current Jewish Community Centre of Greater Vancouver, located at West 41st and Oak Street in Vancouver, BC. The project is a partnership between Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver, the Jewish Community Centre, and King David High School.

“Today, we are thanking the Diamond Foundation for this transformational gift. A project of this magnitude will not be possible without the tremendous generosity demonstrated by the Diamond Foundation, as well as philanthropic support from the community at large,” explains Alex Cristall, JWest capital campaign chair. Mr. Cristall continues, “It is our hope that the Diamond Foundation’s incredible community leadership will serve as inspiration, and we are now calling on others to work with our team to champion this project in an equally impactful way.”

New condominium residence, Daniels on Parliament, to drive design innovation, placemaking, social equity and inclusion in Regent Park

TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Daniels Corporation (“Daniels”), one of Canada’s pre-eminent builders and developers, officially began construction on its latest condominium residence in Regent Park, Daniels on Parliament. Located where Regent Park meets Cabbagetown, Daniels on Parliament is the final condominium within the third phase of the Regent Park revitalization. The condominium will feature two towers, at 25 and 10-storeys, rising from a shared podium.

During the groundbreaking event, Daniels provided details on its Partnership for Affordable Homeownership, a down payment assistance program created for current and past residents of Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) in Regent Park. Daniels also highlighted its placemaking initiatives designed to feature local artists and help drive social equity and inclusion while enhancing the public realm experience. In addition, Daniels announced that it is the first developer in Ontario to offer Ori Living’s robotic furniture units, which will be available in select studio suites at Daniels on Parliament.

“We are excited to bring our latest affordable homeownership program to Daniels on Parliament. We believe it is the duty of responsible builders and developers like us to create opportunities for positive social impact and change,” said Jake Cohen, Chief Operating Officer, The Daniels Corporation. “We recognize the potential our industry has to make a real impact and with our $5 million investment into this new program, we are continuing to make affordable homeownership a reality in Regent Park.”

Opportunities for Affordable Homeownership

The Partnership for Affordable Homeownership (PAH) is Daniels’ latest affordable homeownership program specifically tailored to current and past residents of TCHC who have lived in Regent Park for at least two years since the beginning of the revitalization in 2006. With an investment of up to $5 million, the program is completely funded by Daniels and provides down payment assistance for up to 50 per cent of the purchase price of a new home at Daniels on Parliament, in the form of second mortgage loan for up to 20 years that is interest and monthly payment free.

Understanding there are many intricacies to the homebuying process, Daniels has supported purchasers in preparing for first-time homeownership by offering the Daniels Homeownership 101 Workshop. This informative session is a required step in qualifying for the PAH program and covers all the key details surrounding homeownership. Additionally, all purchasers are also required to commit a minimum of 100 volunteer hours within the Regent Park community, to be fulfilled prior to occupancy, to support the building of a strong community. To date, 10 individuals and families have become homeowners at Daniels on Parliament through the PAH program.

“Over the past 15 years in Regent Park, Daniels has successfully created and implemented various affordable homeownership programs that help first-time buyers realize the dream of homeownership and Daniels on Parliament is an exciting new chapter,” said Heela Omarkhail, Vice President of Social Impact, The Daniels Corporation. “We continue to find ways to truly to be a ‘people-first’ developer and expand affordable homeownership programs that will play an instrumental role in fostering social cohesion and inclusion in this community.”

Daniels is also extending its partnerships with Habitat for Humanity GTA and BlackNorth Initiative (BNI) to Daniels on Parliament by providing two homes to Habitat Partner Families – one of which will be part of the BNI Homeownership Bridge Program. This partnership will help a Black family become homeowners, aiming to build security, stability, equity and opportunity in the Greater Toronto Area.

Partnering With Local Artists to Create Placemaking Opportunities

Daniels is proud to integrate placemaking opportunities at Daniels on Parliament that foster social cohesion and inclusion, as well as generate economic opportunities for local artists. Portfolio-wide, Daniels engages Artscape Atelier, a social enterprise to create opportunities for artists to meaningfully shape community and the built environment through site-specific public art, public realm and creative placemaking interventions.

Various local artists including Peter Kattan and Casey Watson will transform the street corner of Parliament and Gerrard into an artistic landmark that reflects the unique local character, narratives and heritage of the community. Rising where Regent Park meets Cabbagetown, Daniels on Parliament will be celebrated as a gateway to the community and will feature placemaking and artist-designed streetscape elements including murals, benches, light posts and bike rings creating a dynamic and impactful public realm.

“Artscape Atelier is thrilled to be the arts and culture partner, creating a multi-year public art program for the Daniels on Parliament community. This program will not only be a way to beautify the streetscape and create a sense of place, but it will be an important way to tell the Regent Park story,” said Grace Lee Reynolds, Chief Executive Officer at Artscape. “Through the opportunities created, we will be furthering our efforts to work with equity-deserving communities to overcome barriers. We look forward to the future of the Regent Park community, while working to honour the land we are privileged to continue to work on and be part of.”

Urban Innovation with Ori Living

Urban innovation will be at the core of Daniels on Parliament, with Daniels announcing that it is the first-ever Ontario developer to partner with Ori Living (Ori). Ori specializes in designing and supplying multi-use furniture that creates transformable spaces perfect for optimizing living space. At Daniels on Parliament, 40 studio units will integrate the Ori Pocket Closet as a standard feature, incorporating modular and robotic home furnishings that can be moved around and concealed when required. There will also be a number of studio suites with the option to upgrade to the Ori Pocket Closet. This partnership aims to help homeowners realize the full potential of their studio suites by maximizing living space through unique space optimization solutions and multifunctional furniture.

The partnerships and affordable housing initiatives incorporated at Daniels on Parliament build upon Daniels’ long-standing commitment to not only delivering homes but positive impact as well. Daniels on Parliament will celebrate the vibrancy and inclusivity of the Regent Park community while showcasing the importance of collective community impact.
