Loop 33 - Altadore

Nestled in the heart of Altadore, Loop 33 is designed to enrich the ever-evolving culture of this vibrant community and the greater Marda Loop area. At the core of Loop 33's design philosophy is a commitment to providing diverse housing options while fostering a sense of community through a large central amenity area. This development totals 22 units, 8 upper townhomes, 2 ground level flats, and 12 lower & ground level units. This shared space is carefully integrated into the overall site strategy and building massing and serves as a focal point for residents to connect and engage, featuring programmed seating areas, a BBQ, and lush soft landscape buffers.

With its array of unit types, Loop 33 caters to a diverse range of Calgarians. The design ensures accessibility and vibrancy by incorporating private balconies facing the central amenity space, creating transparency, safety, and a strong visual connection with the exterior. Loop 33 seamlessly integrates into the surrounding context, respecting the existing 2-3 storey-built forms and acknowledging the community's existing building forms and styles. The choice of materials, such as brick and corrugated metal panel, not only ensures durability but also enhances the pedestrian experience along 33 Avenue, while also contributing to a timeless and attractive streetscape.
