ARCHITECT: GIBBS GAGE ARCHIECTS (2013)
What a nice surprise it was to discover Elevation Place, a community center in Canmore.
The award winning architecture is nicely crafted to define an "iconic gateway" to the growing city of Canmore.
$39 million were well spent on this 77,000 SF facility which houses, among other things, a library, gym, pool, rock-climbing wall, and coffe house.
All in all, a nice project in a beautiful location.
