Project Overview
Description
Transforming a key urban node in Downtown Ajax, Ontario, Canada, the Harwood and Bayly development (also known as Vision) introduces a multi-phase, mixed-use rental community. Situated at 25 Kitney Dr. (Bldg C) and 2 River St. (Bldg D) near the prominent intersection of Harwood Avenue South and Bayly Street West, the project features twin high-rise residential towers reaching 19 and 23 stories. The contemporary complex balances vibrant ground-floor commercial space with high-density residential housing to transform the local urban skyline.
Challenge
- The towers were originally conceived in traditional brick and architectural precast, imposing heavy dead weight on the building frames
- Accelerate construction timelines across two towers of 19 and 23 storeys
- Deliver a sleek, modern aesthetic with long-term durability at podium and tower
Solution
- CladiShield, Cladify’s rainscreen wall system, with ultra-lightweight porcelain and aluminum PVDF composite panels
- Value engineered from traditional brick and architectural precast, drastically reducing dead weight on the frame
- Large panel formats up to 13 x 6 ft
- Panels mounted from the exterior on thermally broken brackets, creating a ventilated rainscreen cavity for energy performance, moisture protection, and durability
- Porcelain at the podium replacing traditional precast with a refined, stone-like appearance at significantly reduced weight
