Hanover Building Conversion | 98m | 26s | Cairo Development | NORR

[Surrealplaces]

26 floors, with 264 units. I don't know if anyone has been around this building lately, but this may already be underway, as according to Alberta Projects, a BP was issued in April.

Yeah its under construction. I have noticed quite a time ago.

 

[Chinook Arch]

Yeah, there's been activity for a while. I had no idea it was a residential conversion.

I'm pretty sure Hanover Place is 98m tall.

 

[Surrealplaces]

Updated. The 48m was a typo.

Is this conversion not funded in part by the downtown office conversion program? I don't see it listed on the city's webpage.

That's friggin dope. The Fina Building, this, and Loft? What a nice surprise!!

It doesn't appear to be. I can't find any documentation tying it to the program.

Awesome! the more residential in that area, the better!

Someone should build a residential tower cross the street where phase 2 of the Bow was supposed to be. Who owns that site now?

The Palliser one is also starting early next year.

I wondered if that's what was happening but had not seen anything. I walk by here every time I'm in the office and they have stripped it right back so they're well underway.

+15 connected in a very central location. I see the appeal to live here.

It bodes well that we are seeing another conversion happen outside of the fund in terms of developer confidence behind office conversions.

That building has been mostly vacant for almost a decade I think.
