A Welcoming Space Connecting Visitors with Nature.

This flagship visitor, learning and community centre welcomes people to Rouge National Urban Park and helps foster understanding, appreciation and stewardship of the park. It creates a space where visitors and residents can learn about the Indigenous, natural, cultural and agricultural heritage of the park, and Parks Canada’s role in protecting places from coast-to-coast. 

Lobo was engaged to provide a Threat Risk Assessment of the site, providing detailed recommendations that informed many different aspects of the facility’s design including architectural, landscaping, traffic control, lighting and systems engineering. Lobo also led the design of video surveillance, access control and intrusion systems together with the associated network design.
