Heritage Property Corp. has plans to revitalize a heritage streetscape of six buildings on the south side of 7th Avenue SW, including the original Calgary Stock Exchange, the Canadian Bible Society building and others. A key part of this project is the construction behind the buildings of an automated car park straight out of the Jetsons - a project unique to Calgary that helps to solve two problems: downtown parking and heritage preservation!

Neil's team is responsible for the recent renaissance of the Lougheed Building at 1st St and 6th Ave SW. Other successful projects including the NW Travellers Building and the Lorraine Apartments in Calgary, the Canmore Hotel, Bradley’s Saddlery Building in High River, and the MacKay Place in Millarville. The Snowden Refinery Building in SE Ramsay is another recent purchase.

You won't want to miss this opportunty to hear about Neil's plans. A great opportunity to meet members of the Calgary Heritage Initiative Society and others who believe that heritage preservation is vital to Calgary's character.
