Some of HH Angus’ recent and ongoing projects also
include Ericsson’s new ICT Centre in Montreal, and
Toronto’s transit subway stations at multiple sites in
Toronto. A large staff contingent is working at a proj-
ect office, designing for the Centre Hospitalier de
l’Université de Montréal – the largest hospital in North
America, covering 2½ city blocks and 334,000 square
meters at a cost of better than $2 billion.
HH Angus is doing design work in Revit, a 3D-modeling
graphic software, and both the size/scope of the Mon-
treal project, along with its engineering complexity,
have helped raise the company’s profile.
Going forward, O’Neill said, maintaining and building
on that status remains the top objective, specifically
in helping cities turn the page from old systems into
updated replacements.
“In Toronto, and a lot of other large city centers, there’s
aging infrastructure and aging mechanical and electri-
cal infrastructure within buildings, so that’s one area
we’re trying to grow,” he said. “We’re trying to take that
approach and do a little bit more. Everybody’s got sus-
tainability and energy efficiency top of mind to green
existing structures, so those are great opportunities as
well for a firm like ours, with so many diverse areas of
specialization.”
