Lane Loft by Katana Homes
There are over 250 km of public laneways in the City of Toronto. Many groups have been looking at using them for housing. There are a number of laneway homes already. We support Laneway Homes and would like to introduce the LaneLoft product.
The Laneloft is made up of two products:
-
A laneway garage Base-Unit constructed from shipping containers that is "laneway home ready"
-
The Camira 320 Studio Unit which is mounted on top of it
The advantages of using this system:
-
Base-unit can be built now and added on when the City passes laneway home by-laws in the future
-
All utility connections will be built-in ready for the top unit
-
Built to current zoning by-laws and Toronto building codes
-
Short installation time
-
Reduced on-site waste
-
Green building techniques by upcycling shipping containers
-
Potential Net-Zero building
