Borden Park wins $2,500 in facility products
and services from Cintas
Cintas Canada, Ltd. is proud to announce that
Borden Park in Edmonton, Alberta, is the winner of the 2021
Canada’s Best Restroom contest! Borden Park will receive $2,500 in
Cintas products and services to help maintain their award-winning
washrooms. The washrooms will also be honoured with a place in the
Canada’s Best Restroom® Hall of Fame.
Now in its 12th year, Cintas’ nationwide contest highlights
businesses that have invested in developing and maintaining
exceptional washrooms that are accessible to the public.
“We’re pleased to be recognized by Cintas for this incredible
distinction,” said Nicole Fraser, General Supervisor of Planning
and Monitoring, Infrastructure Operations at the City of Edmonton.
“We recognize the need to provide access to safe and clean
washrooms to the public. The Borden Park facility goes beyond that
by serving as an art excursion surrounded by highly reflective
glass, camouflaging the building among the trees.”
Designed by gh3* in Toronto, the Borden Park washrooms are at
the core of the single-level pavilion surrounded by highly
reflective glass. An integrated approach to environmental
sustainability is evident in the choice of materials: wood,
concrete and glass were selected for their durability, permanence
and timelessness. The washroom features hands-free elements to
reduce germs and a stainless-steel trough-style sink that prevents
water splashing on the floor. The sleek washroom stands as a
striking improvement on the typical concrete options, and a sign of
outstanding design to come.
“Public washrooms play an important role for people who are on
the go, but this contest proves not all facilities are created
equal,” said Candice Raynsford, Marketing Manager, Cintas Canada.
“Borden Park prioritized providing a clean and inviting washroom,
and the public showed their appreciation by voting them Canada’s
Best Restroom.”
Borden Park’s engagement throughout the contest played a
critical role in driving votes for their location. In addition to
promoting the contest via their social media page, they
participated in several radio, TV and newspaper interviews. Their
promotion resulted in the top spot in this year’s competition.
Nominees for this year’s contest were judged on five criteria:
cleanliness, visual appeal, innovation, functionality and unique
design elements. Online voting was open to the public June 7
through July 9. The other finalists (in alphabetical order)
include:
- Surrey Park – Surrey, British Columbia
- Sweet Market Esso Station – Red Deer, Alberta
- The ROOFTOP – Calgary, Alberta
- Toronto Zoo – Toronto, Ontario
