Nox, I agree - that's a lot of residential construction, and most of it is conventional. These numbers show that architecturally interesting residential projects are very rare.

The Central Library/ Farmer's Market was one of the 36 submissions to the Urban Design awards competition this year. I don't know why it didn't get an Urban Design award - perhaps because it was mostly an interior renovation? In May 2011, it had received an Award of Design Excellence from the Ontario Association of Architects.

David Premi's own house was not among the submitted projects this year. It is likely that it had not yet been finished by the cut-off date of June 30, 2011. Maybe he will enter it in 2013.
