The Project

Located on a brownfield site, the construction of the building is the culmination of the first phase of the urban development of the City of Calgary industrial yards into a civic operational and administrative centre. As the first project in the area's redevelopment, this building's architectural qualities and public space set a standard that future projects must respect.
