NIACON was the chosen General Contractor to build a new five-storey addition to the pre-exisiting complex at the AMICA Dundas assisted living retirement facility. The new addition included a variation of one and two-bedroom layouts, with several barrier free accessibility options to accommodate all future residents. Unique amenities were implemented into the design giving residents new experiences and activities within the facility. These new spaces included and in-house barber shop, a boutique bistro, new elegant private dining, a wellness and health center with private offices, and a unique spa located on the second floor. Additionally, a new modernized multi-purpose room was constructed to accommodate new social events such as live entertainment, guest speakers, and large community gatherings. This events room required extensive audio/visual and special lighting construction to house all types of possible venues. Consequently, a new below-grade parking garage was built with access from both the new and existing living areas. The existing site was also further developed, adding character and curb appeal through extensive landscaping to the original site design.
