The Build

Woodlyns is a Jewish Chinese restaurant at 947 Eglinton Avenue West in Toronto, and the design reflects its cuisine. The client first reached out to PT General Contractor while he was looking for a place, to see whether the places he had in mind were suitable to build the restaurant he imagined. PT went to see a couple of places with him before he decided on the Eglinton Avenue West space. PT was retained the moment he signed the lease.

The Build

La Vecchia is an Italian restaurant retrofit in Thornhill that PT delivered as a design-build project, one team from the drawing board to the finished restaurant. Starting from the existing restaurant the client had purchased, PT produced the architectural drawings, designed the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, and carried its own design straight through construction, remaking an existing space toward the most authentic Italian dining environment the client set out to create.
