351, Commercial building in St. John's, Canada
351 is a 12-story commercial building located on Water Street in downtown St. John's that combines office spaces with a multi-level parking structure. The lower levels function as a parking facility while the upper floors contain office areas.
The site of 351 was built on reclaimed land created from rubble after major fires that swept through St. John's during the 1800s. This reconstruction on reclaimed ground reflects the city's recovery following those historical disasters.
Local architects integrated the design of 351 within the urban landscape of St. John's, respecting the architectural heritage of Newfoundland and Labrador.
The building sits directly on Water Street, a main downtown thoroughfare that is easily accessible by foot. The location offers convenient access to nearby shops, restaurants, and public transportation options.
The structure uses deep water source cooling technology that draws water from deeper harbor levels to naturally cool the building. This marked the first installation of this system in Newfoundland and Labrador.
