79 Valleyview includes 39 new low-carbon rental homes built on an excess surface parking lot adjacent to a retained community space. The low-rise design includes a series of three-storey walk-up homes with a mix of one- and two-bedroom homes.

Homes at 79 Valleyview are designed for the 2050 climate leading to low-energy, resilient and comfortable homes.  

Sustainability features include:

  • High-efficiency, all-electric mechanical system utilizing heat pumps. 
  • No fossil fuels are combusted on site, reducing Scope 1 emissions to ZERO, a 100% reduction. 
  • Well-insulated building envelope and rigorous airtightness measures, result in efficient buildings with reduced energy consumption from the power grid, consequently reducing Scope 2 emissions. 
  • On-site renewable energy production via solar PV panels further reduces electricity consumption and consequent Scope 2 emissions by an overall 100%. 
  • Extensive use of low-embodied carbon building materials, including light wood framing and low-GWP insulation, reduces Scope 3 emissions by 67%. 
  • EV charging 

79 Valleyview is beautiful, sustainable and desirable providing residents access to transit, parks, trails, and local public amenities.
