An attractive new restaurant development in uptown Toronto, Canada will soon offer visitors a unique and sunlit place to enjoy a great meal, thanks to its eye-catching single-slope retractable patio roof designed and built by OpenAire.

This restaurant concept is part of a new property developed by First Capital Realty, located at 3080 Yonge Street in the Yonge and Lawrence neighbourhood, which will offer residents mixed-use commercial, retail and office space. OpenAire has begun construction on the new, customized retractable roof. This exciting location will offer a new and inviting destination to an established Toronto neighbourhood.

The project includes a 120-foot-long by 18-foot-deep (2,160 sq. ft.), single-slope retractable skylight designed and constructed for the restaurant space by OpenAire. This roof includes a unique design aspect; while constructed as a large single unit, it can be subdivided into two separate sections, which can be operated independently.

OpenAire is proud to design the roof to include this custom feature for the space, which gives the landlords, First Capital Realty, the flexibility to have either one or two new tenants.
