Last week at Building Lasting Change 2025, hosted by the Canada Green Building Council (CAGBC), MTA Partner Phil Silverstein shared the story of Limberlost Place, a 10-storey exposed mass timber building designed by our team at Moriyama Teshima Architects and Acton Ostry Architects (AOA) for George Brown College, built by PCL Construction.

The panel explored how Green Building Canada’s bold sustainability vision, MTA/AOA’s innovative design, and PCL’s construction expertise came together to deliver this remarkable project. From sustainable performance targets to real-world execution,

Limberlost Place demonstrates what’s possible when collaboration drives climate-conscious design.

There’s no stronger testament to success than architect, client, and builder standing on stage together, united by a shared commitment to building better.
