Beeches Development Inc.

Beeches Development Inc. is planning an 87,000-square-foot, seven-floor data center located at 154-156 Wicksteed Ave in Leaside, Toronto, Canada. The project, spearheaded by company president Charles Goldsmith, is designed to meet the specific needs of a prime tenant, with potential groundbreaking next year. The design emphasizes functionality, driven by mechanical, electrical, and IT systems, requiring robust structural support for specialized computer equipment and extensive redundancy in power and cooling systems. The building will feature a façade with brick relief to enhance its architectural expression. Security will be paramount, with round-the-clock personnel and surveillance. The ground floor will be constructed to highway crash standards. This development reflects a growing trend of developers turning to data centers amidst demand shifts in the commercial sector.
