Avenue West End
An inner city setting is home to a work/play environment with towering views of the city skyline, Bow River, and Rocky Mountains.
At Avenue West End an impressive setting meets innovative design, with a stunning glass facade encased in steel. This inner city, riverside landmark is home to a work/play environment with its close proximity to downtown. Coupled with views of the Bow River and the Rocky Mountains, Avenue makes a grand entrance into Calgary’s West End. Live there and discover the beauty and excitement all around you.
Avenue West End (Avenue) features a stellar design by internationally acclaimed James KM Cheng Architects, capturing the collective talent of its dual development team. “Grosvenor Americas and Cressey Development Group are two trusted names in the design and development of exceptional communities,” shares Robert Duteau, Senior Vice President of Development at Grosvenor Americas, the company that also created Smith, a significant residential high-rise located in the heart of Calgary’s Beltline district.
“Avenue is set amidst its mature West End setting and our entire development program focuses on seeking such under-identified urban locations,” states Duteau of this downtown, riverfront community. Modern in design and showcasing floorto-ceiling windows, Avenue offers the ideal birds-eye view of its spectacular locale. With a vision to bring a refined project to a preferred location, significant benefits include its proximity to Kensington, with its bustling eateries and gathering places, multiple riverfront pathways, and convenience for those who work downtown.
“Our homeowners closely identify with two demographics. Those who wish to downsize in comfort and style, taking advantage of a lock-and-leave lifestyle, as well as young urban professionals who are drawn to the area’s multiple activities and amenities,” cites Duteau.
With the east tower now complete and over 75% sold, 23 stories host 192 sleek residences of contemporary style. Offering one and two-bedroom homes, as well as two-story townhomes, the units range in size from 572 to 1,320 square feet with prices starting in the low $300,000’s. “We also have a spectacular two-story penthouse that features a 2,000-square-foot rooftop terrace,” adds Duteau. Boasting premium amenities and features that include concierge services, a hotel-inspired porte-cochere entrance and grand lobby, in-floor heating in main bathrooms, air conditioning, hallway garbage chutes, a state-of-theart fitness room, a bike service room, and a dog wash station all ensure comfort, convenience, and easy maintenance options.
With stylish and flexible interiors, Avenue offers a thoughtfully crafted, exclusive living experience found nowhere else in Calgary. The interior design selections extend quality features and are yet another compelling lifestyle attraction. Premium finishes include the functional Cressey kitchen™ that hosts a revolutionized design with built-in, fully-integrated appliances, and a “big feel” ambience.
Each home showcases quartz countertops with marble backsplash and custom, soft-close cabinetry in the kitchen and wide-plank, engineered hardwood flooring in the main living areas. High ceilings contribute to airy décors that capture roller blinds on all windows with solid walnut doors. Other features include impressive outdoor balconies, patios or terraces, as well as secure underground parking and storage lockers.
Established, tranquil and central – the West End is a riverside community that offers two unique living experiences. There is an unmistakable urban vibe to the area given its close proximity to nightlife, wine bars, and boutiques. Yet the area also offers a distinctly residential feel. With its effortless access to the Bow River, pathways, and the lush greenery of Prince’s Island Park, you can find serenity while still enjoying the heart of downtown.
This spring, Avenue has launched its new Sales Centre with three in-building, fully furnished display homes located at 102, 1025 – 5th Ave S.W. Contact info@avenuewestend.com or 403-530-8455 for more information and to book your appointment to view these move-in ready homes.
