First Tower at City of Lougheed to Include 566 Units

Shape Properties is proceeding with a formal rezoning application for the first residential tower in The City of Lougheed, the project name for the 40-acre Lougheed mall site that was approved for redevelopment under a master plan earlier this year to include 23 residential towers.

The application for the first phase of the project is in a prominent part of the site at the Southeast corner (Northwest corner of North Rd and Austin Ave). The plan includes:

  • a 55-storey residential tower
  • a total building height of 520 ft.
  • 566 units
  • 517,000 SF of residential area
  • a total density of 2.60 FAR
  • 590 underground parking spaces

The application describes the design: “The floor plates of the subject Tower 1 are arranged in two massing volumes that offer a different height extrusion of one part against the other. The larger of the two parts extends up to 55 storeys while the smaller part sits at 47-storeys. This arrangement provides for a landscaped terrace and exposed elevator core.”
