The success of Crofton Queens Park comes from its ability to be easily integrated into British Columbia's oldest historic district, a neighbourhood full of meticulously restored historic homes dating back to the 1870s. The project essentially creates an extension of the historic Queens Park residential neighbourhood through a variety of architectural devices. Its design is historically accurate and uncompromised which allows it to fit perfectly with its century-old neighbours. Traditional building materials are used throughout, including masonry and wood trim. Roof forms include hips and gables which, when combined with detailed eaves and gable ends, provides a rich character.
Colours are predominantly rich earth tones taken from a collection of historical samples.
The project sets a high standard of development for subsequent projects in this neighbourhood. The City of New Westminster was also selected by the Canadian Home Builders Association of B.C. as a Silver Georgie 2000 Award Winner.
