The Kenten project consists of the refurbishment and redevelopment of an existing mixed-use property covering a whole block on the Bow riverfront, accross from Calgary’s commercial downtown core. It includes condominiums, townhomes, CRU’s and offices. The residential portion was built in the early 80’s as rental apartments and has a current unit count of 86. Our mandate is to redesign this iconic property referred to as “the most famous corner in Calgary” into luxury condominiums: this includes a zoning amendment obtaining bonus FAR and a slight height adjustment. The result will be 52 new ultra high-end units that are designed as true alternatives to a single family house. The property is the gateway to the traditional Kensington community and functions as a transition between the downtown core (with its tall structure on the south side) and the residential neighborhood (the north side is limited to four stories). The south elevation presents itself as an amazing opportunity: every floor offers unobstructed views of downtown, the Rocky Mountains and the Bow River. Our design provides every unit with operable glazing walls to allow the living spaces to expand onto large terraces and bath in the south light.
