Nestled in the vibrant Kensington area, Vera Boutique 528 & 628 is committed to enhancing the walkable and lively nature of the 10th street retail corridor. These projects align with recent revitalization efforts in Kensington that aim to contribute to appropriately scaled residential options. Vera Boutique 528 & 628 provide an opportunity to set a precedent for how densification can occur using a small footprint and human scaled architectural design principles. The development utilizes minimal materials for a clean and concise aesthetic that contributes to its modernist façade. The live-work and retail/restaurant options at grade emphasises a dedication for fostering street-level engagement and to be able to adapt to the continuously improving urban conditions of the area. Rich landscaping, patio spaces, and a thoughtful approach to the rear façade ensure a functional and aesthetically integrated environment, providing a positive contribution to Calgary's broader urbanization initiatives.

Embracing the ideals of connectivity and continuity, the location of Vera Boutique 528 & 628 positions them as ideal spots for Calgarians seeking alternatives to vehicle use. Close by is the Sunnyside LRT Station, which provides a consistent and convenient mode of transportation throughout the entire city, and they are nearby bike paths that connect to the broader Bow River pathway which aids in creating accessible transportation options. The legibility and accessibility of the spaces are paramount and with a clear delineation of public and private spaces, the landscaped front yard, and the careful articulation of the highly transparent facades at the ground level ensures welcoming sightlines for the live work and retail units to make sure everyone is able to enjoy the space. These projects exemplify human-scale initiatives that align with the evolving urban landscape of Calgary.
