I would really like seeing more if this around the city, more like in these kinds of materials.

Good effort to implement a contemporary version of a brick low rise building. Unfortunately, the execution is off and the combination of materials will not age well. Similar to 546's Courtyard on 33rd catastrophe, I find these new age Winnipeg architecture firms are able to come up with great concepts, but the final product tends to miss the mark. Hopefully, the ground floor retail will save this one.

Mostly good, but up close the lack of considered detailing around the soffits and the full sheets beside the windows really looks unfinished.

Dangerous to say this in this town, but I feel like this could've used a splash of color to accent all that white.

A tiny bit of grey or blue grey accents would have looked good

2 units are listed for rent for November. Is the whole bulding purpose rental?

Some strange layouts. All the angles would drive my OCD nuts in trying to arrange furniture. Also not a fan of the unfinished industrial look they went for, however I know there's a demographic that loves it and this is definitely a good location/building to try it.

This, on the other hand, is intriguing and has to be a first in Calgary!

Do they have someone to maintain the hot tubs? I would expect a lot of gross water otherwise lol.

For this location, it's awful architecture. It should be much more modern. The units are typical coffin-style unliveable layouts.

2 bedroom and 890 sq ft is hardly "unliveable". Walking distance to transit and Superstore, the space seems pretty sufficient.

The Architecture isn't bad, it contrasts nicely with all the glass around it, and not enough new buildings use brick. The massing is decent and there is retail facing the river path. I wish the brick was more like the colour in the renders, but I'm happy with this overall...
