Overview
Facilities Management is committed to improving campus spaces to make them more accessible and inclusive for all.
The new Hall 7 facilities have been designed based on research about universally accessible, gender-inclusive, modern and safe washroom spaces. Designs have also been informed by other Concordia renovations and community feedback about the work*.
*Please note that during the work period alternative washrooms are available.
Goals
Create inclusive, safe and universally accessible washrooms.
Undertake work in accordance with best practices.
Minimize disruptions to the community while work is underway.
Meet community needs, respect building code, and optimize space.
Features of new, inclusive washrooms
Gender neutral, multi-stall spaces.
Individual washrooms options for those who want or need them.
Tall stalls for safety and privacy.
Bright, open, welcoming space.
Alternative washrooms during work period
Those seeking washrooms during the work can use stairs, elevators or escalators to reach facilities on the 6th or 9th floor.
Those with accessibility needs may prefer smaller Hall 7 facilities or individual washrooms near the Student Success Centre.
