Two unequal height rental apartments have been placed along Main Street, offset so as to permit a vehicular drop-off court in front of the buildings.

The two buildings are linked to a common core to act as a single building and share common recreation facilities at the ground level.  The elevational difference between the streets surrounding the project enable garage access at the rear street level without a ramp thus removing substantial vehicular movements from Main Street.

In response to its downtown Brampton context, the building has a two storey podium with some retail functions which tie it to the existing buildings along Main Street.  The two-tone brick is indigenous to the area and matches the brick used for the church on the opposite side of the street.  The distinctive mansard like rooftop lowers the apparent height of the building to proportions appropriate for its location.
