Queenswood now the Ocean-Climate Building
The Ring
The Ocean-Climate Building officially opened Jan. 10 with an event acknowledging the funding support to renovate and reconfigure the Queenswood residential care facility. At the opening, the Government of Canada announced $12.6 million over four years for ONC, the anchor group in the building.
Queenswood renovations
The Ring
The $7-million renovation project that will turn a former religious order residence into UVic's new ocean and climate research campus has moved into the seismic upgrading phase.
Queenswood legacy lives on in salvaged objects
The Ring
In preparation for building renovations at the Queenswood site, several hundred items—fixtures, healthcare and commercial kitchen equipment, plumbing fixtures, millwork, appliances, even dishes and hot water tanks—have been salvaged for re-use by a variety of departments and off-campus organizations, including UVic Food Services, the University Club, Bamfield Marine Centre and Beacon Community Services.
Funding supports ocean and climate hub
Media release
Researchers and students at UVic will benefit from a combined investment totalling $7 million from the Government of Canada and the university for infrastructure renovation and renewal projects of UVic's ocean and climate hub.
Queenswood rezoning update: 12/2011
The Ring
Earlier this year, after two open houses and an initial consultative process, UVic submitted a rezoning application to the District of Saanich for the Queenswood property, which was purchased from the Sisters of St. Ann in 2010. After discussion and feedback, UVic continues to take additional time to consider its future use and rezoning of the property. A new community consultative framework for UVic capital project proposals and campus planning will be finalized in the new year and will then help inform the exchange of information and discussion with the community about the Queenswood property.
