Just a few weeks since our last update, and AVLI on Atlantic has been filling out nicely as insulation, framing, and cladding work continues. With all of the glass now more less installed, and much of the framing and insulation work now nearing completion, it will not be long before the first pieces of grey spandrel begin to appear.

Located within the heart of Inglewood's commercial strip along 9 Ave SE, AVLI on Atlantic is but one of many similar-sized projects (including the adjacent South Bank) now under construction in the neighbourhood. AVLI on Atlantic will soon become home to 64 residential units spread across 7 storeys, thereby representing a total influx of upwards of 100 new residents.

The mixed-use development will also be host to a two-storey retail space at grade (visible above and below) which will front onto 9 Ave SE. Set to contain a mix of retail uses, including potentially a cafe, shop, our fast food outlet, the retail component will serve the area well.

AVLI on Atlantic, designed by Sturgess Architecture for Greenview Developments, will feature two distinctly different volumes, the angular, saw-tooth configuration of the residential suites being somewhat subdued by the more rectilinear commercial elements found at grade. All-in-all, AVLI on Atlantic ought to be positive addition to Inglewood, its residential and retail components to breathe new life into the area.
