20 King Street West

Following a hydro vault explosion and fire at 20 King Street West, HH Angus was engaged to provide mechanical and electrical engineering consulting services for the subsequent investigation, restoration, rehabilitation and modernization of the base building core and shell.

20 King Street West is a 299, 635 ft2 office tower in Toronto’s downtown financial district. It consists of 12-storeys above grade, including the mezzanine, truss, upper truss and penthouse, as well as two levels below grade.

HH Angus completed an extensive remediation and renewal of all mechanical and electrical components and major equipment that had been severely contaminated or damaged by the fire.

The updates to the mechanical and electrical systems of the now restored and modernized building ensure that it is a much more resilient facility that meets current standards and is able to better withstand potential future incidents.
