Apartment-style condos big draw in southeast Calgary

Constructi­on on second of six buildings to begin at Walden Place developmen­t

Shovels are back in the ground at the site for a new multi-family developmen­t in southeast Calgary.

Earlier in July, Cardel Lifestyles broke ground on constructi­on for the second of six apartment-style condo buildings at Walden Place. The developmen­t plan includes 40 townhomes, as well.

“We’ve been busy,” says Brad Logel, area sales manager. “We’ve had a lot of visitors, and we keep getting a lot of returns.”

Market research and advisory firm Urban Analytics says Walden Place was one of the top-selling wood-frame condo developmen­ts in Calgary over the second quarter of its recording period, which is April 1 through the end of May 2017, the most current data available.

Like the first building, the building under constructi­on is planned for 83 apartment-style condos. It’s now 50 per cent sold, and prices start from $154,900, before tax. In the first building, there are three spec units remaining.

The first building will offer possession­s this summer and the second building in spring-summer 2018.

“We’re under constructi­on. We’ve helped a lot of people, but because it’s a fairly large building, I’ve still got a great selection,” Logel says.

There are seven show suites on display at Walden Place, all of which are available in the second building at Walden Place. In total, the developmen­t boasts 11 floor plans, ranging from 544 to 1,021 square feet.
