Alberta Block Renovation

Edmonton, Canada

The historic building, which until recently housed the CKUA radio studios, was redeveloped by RedBrick into a mixed-use office and restaurant character building through an Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) process.

The IPD team worked within a fully collaborative framework to revitalize the building. The Alberta Block building consists of five levels of leasable office space based on the newly created open floor plans within the character building. The main level is leased as retail tenant space and incorporates a restaurant and bar.

Challenge

Creating an open floor space within a heritage structure.

Solution

Entuitive designed new post and beam structural lines through the centre of the building to replace old load-bearing walls that closed off the space and limited its usability.

Challenge

The IPD process and framework; true IPD projects are not common in Alberta.

Solution

Entuitive’s approach has, from our inception, been built upon collaboration and advanced technology that we apply to every project. This allowed for our success as a participant in the IPD process.
