Responding to the increased demand for affordable housing in
Edmonton, the beautiful Lendrum residential complex was built to
modern standards with ease-of-use systems and intuitive technology.
Englobe was honoured to provide advanced mechanical, electrical
and geotechnical engineering for the Lendrum redevelopment
project. Overseeing the demolition of the retired Lendrum buildings
and subsequent conversion of the property, the team delivered an
upgraded residence complex that doubled the original site’s density
while meeting all stakeholder needs.
JUDGES’ COMMENTS
The complexity of redeveloping an existing site was managed
in a positive way to bring new life to a community and much
needed affordable housing.
