Block 22 is Gracorp’s newest project site in Calgary fastest growing urban neighbourhood University District. The vision for Block 22’s 2-Acre site is an amenity-rich building bought together via a connecting bridge design that cascades down towards Central Commons Park. Block 22 is a 12-storey concrete tower, 2 levels of secured underground parking that terraces down toward Central Commons Park with enhanced architectural features and structural rhythm. The 330-unit building is designed to exceed NECB energy and greenhouse gas emissions by 25%. Block 22 will be a fully furnished building that will introduce a new product to the University District market that is currently underserved. The project will have a diverse unit mix of Studios, 1-, 2-, 3-bedroom units, and 2-story townhome-style suites with direct access to the park. The ground floor units and amenity sizes will create a highly attractive and engaging experience for both the residents and visitors.

With Direct access to Central Commons Park to the East and Aria’s amenities to the North, Block 22 has direct access to features such as a grocery store, plazas, a winter ice rink, multiple restaurants, a movie theatre, along with walking and bike paths with ample green space. The building amenities will include a full fitness facility, study lounge, communal lounge space, rooftop courtyard featuring BBQ stations & firepits, bike storage & lockers, a secure parcel room, and fully furnished suites.  Additionally, residents will have walking access to an abundance of community amenities including grocery stores, parks, a dog park, the University of Calgary, three nearby hospitals, Market Mall, and a wealth of transportation options including immediate access to the train, bus system, TransCanada Highway and numerous local bike paths.
