Around The Building
The Orchard Park complex is located on the southeast corner of the Ignatius Jesuit Centre. It shares the land with the world–renown Loyola House Retreat and the Ignatius Farm. As a proud member of the Ignatius Jesuit Centre of Guelph, Orchard Park Office Centre brings contemporary context to the Jesuit tradition of serving the community.
In The Building
Orchard Park Office Centre is a mixed–use office complex that is ideal for companies that appreciate an unassuming and quiet workplace. Inspiring clarity and creativity, Orchard Park Office Centre is a perfect office leasing solution for financial, agricultural, environmental and health–care companies.
The Centre's tenant mix includes: Canadian Mental Health Association, Nature Conservancy Canada; Wildlife Preservation Canada and the Ecological Farmers Association of Ontario. The aggregate of a picturesque rural setting with treasured remnants of it's unique history, affords a relaxed and amiable atmosphere for office employees and their clients.
Building Structure
Encompassing approximately 135,000 square feet, with 80,000 square feet of dedicated office space, the Centre successfully integrates two historical developments. The northwest wing, built in the late 1940’s, manifests a Neoclassic “federalist” style architecture while the southeast addition, built in 1960 to house Ignatius College, is demonstrative of craftsman–built “campus” design. The brick building is embellished with natural stone, rich wood and tudor casement style windows.
Building features include a verdant courtyard with maturing tree canopy and marble statuary.
Location
Centrally located in southwestern Ontario, Orchard Park is just minutes from downtown Guelph; 50 minutes from Pearson International Airport; and 90 minutes from the US border.
Although situated on the perimeter of an urban city, Orchard Park remains a timeless rural landscape with access to 15km of walking and cross-country ski trails, community shared organic vegetable gardens, apple orchards, sacred spaces such as a grassy labyrinth and open vistas overlooking the Ignatius Farm.

Joining the organization in 1993, Micheal Schweier successfully transitioned the buidling from Ignatius College to Orchard Park Office Centre. Michael's dedication and attentiveness to the needs of the his tenants has afforded Orchard Park a good reputation among the business community.
