Block 109

Building Type

Multi-Family Residential

Hightlights

Block 109 is a clean-lined contemporary apartment building along the prominent 109th Street corridor to Whyte Avenue and the Edmonton downtown core. The 60-unit infill apartment building draws inspiration from the neighborhood and cultivates a prominent corner site with a multifaceted design that breaks the larger mass into a traditional plinth base design with an upper split mass that is accentuated with a folded plane ribbon.

By incorporating a 2-storey plinth at street level, this 6-storey plus underground parkade building actively preserves the neighborhood scale while contributing a new and exciting landmark that engages at the pedestrian and street traffic scale.

An elegant fusion of distinct masses, Block 109 offers engaging, street-level facades on all sides. A prominent entrance on the 109th Street façade greets residents, with more private apartment entrances on 79th Avenue through private terrace gardens. The top floor is recessed back on all sides to create a penthouse-style loft.

Consciously rooted at a thriving intersection of Edmonton street life, Block 109 offers the dynamic culture of this neighborhood a new, vibrant anchor point of gathering and growth for many years to come.
