CTV News shared that Place des Arts, a project completed by Moriyama Teshima Architects and Bélanger Salach Architecture, recently received the 2023 Architecture Press Release Awards (Urban Design & Architecture Design Award).

Located at the corner of Larch and Elgin Street in downtown Sudbury, a once vacant city parking lot has been transformed into a 3-storey building housing a 300-seat theatre, 120 seat black-box studio theatre and rehearsal space, youth studio, daycare for 24 children, and spaces for children’s summer camps and specialized after-school programs involving the arts. The building also contains a multi-media art gallery, bistro, and a gift shop, as well as meeting rooms accessible to the community.
