From lamp works to light works
Built in 1908 for the Sunbeam Incandescent Lamp Company of Canada, this industrial building later became the Canadian Head Office for the General Electric Company, where they produced electric clocks, fuses and, yes, light bulbs.
Now known as Light Factory, this brilliantly renovated turn of the century manufacturing facility stands testament to our city’s rich heritage, an exceptional example of early 20th century industrial design with features of Edwardian classicism.
Post & beam, reimagined
Original brick façade, hardwood floors and ceilings soaring from 14 to 30 feet. The interiors have been meticulously revitalized, the warmth of post and beam construction enriched by a modern, understated attitude.
Windows that actually open, abundant skylights and exposed structure give every suite the kind of character new construction simply can’t replicate.
Heritage that performs like new
Light Factory is LEED Gold certified for Existing Building Operations & Maintenance, so a building from 1908 runs on the efficiency standards of new construction. Individual unit climate controls, energy saving lighting and building wide waste diversion keep both the footprint and the operating costs down.
Everything the workday needs
Renovated lobbies, a shared boardroom, two rooftop patios, a fitness facility, free lunchtime yoga, coffee in the lobby and an indoor tenant lounge, all included with your space.
