Canadian Museum of Nature

Size: 45,000 m²
Location: Ottawa, Ontario & Gatineau, Quebec

Overview

ACML operates two unique properties for the Canadian Museum of Nature, each with a complex set of mission-critical operating parameters. In Ottawa, the public face of the museum is a heritage building that recently underwent a massive renovation to become a state-of-the-art facility designed to support multiple environments – including an in-house iceberg and a butterfly sanctuary. In Gatineau, the facility supports exhibit intake, preparation and archives for their collections, including sophisticated laboratory, workshop and refrigeration environments. Both sites have complex building systems and guarded refrigeration plants overseen by ACML’s Chief Operating Engineer.
