Kingsway Mall

Kingsway Mall has deployed many energy and emissions reducing programs, including:

• Motion sensor lights in all common areas
• LED lighting throughout the entire centre, including the parking lot
• Energy-efficient HVAC equipment
• Energy-efficient maintenance trucks
• Recycling of all wooden pallets, food-use oil, e-waste, bottles and cans, cardboard and paper waste

Kingsway expanded its sustainability program in 2023 with the introduction of a rooftop garden. The garden was launched in support of Edmonton’s Food Bank.

In 2024, Kingsway doubled the number of planters at the rooftop garden compared to 2023 and also added a new beehive to support pollination and help maintain the bee population in the community.

The rooftop now features nearly 90 planters growing a variety of produce including herbs, tomatoes, and leafy greens, serving to promote awareness of urban gardening and fresh produce donations to Edmonton’s Food Bank. The garden is maintained by Kingsway Mall staff and tenants. The onsite bees continue to help pollinate the plants, supporting Kingsway’s efforts to increase the harvested produce donated to Edmonton’s Food Bank. One hundred percent of the produce from the garden is donated to Edmonton’s Food Bank.

Kingsway was proudly awarded the BOMA BEST Gold Certification in 2023. BOMA (Building Owners & Managers Association) is the leading environmental certification program for commercial buildings. The BOMA BEST program sets national benchmarks for sustainability in building operations.
