When we last reported on Edgar Development's 'The Hendrix' in Edmonton three months ago, the 30-storey Dialog Architects-designed rental apartment tower was just shy of topping off. In the time since that update, the project has reached its final height on 111 Street NW, and its tower crane has been disassembled and removed, marking two major milestones in The Hendrix's construction.
Cladding installation has since progressed to seal off much of the structure, taking the form of a window wall facade with grey spandrel on the east and west elevations, and a combination of window wall and opaque white panels on the north and south elevations. Over the next few months, the installation of balcony glazing and mechanical penthouse cladding are expected to complete The Hendrix's exterior aesthetic.
At ground level, the 201,500-square-foot tower incorporates the historic J.T. Ross House into its base. The inclusion of brick-clad townhomes at street level help to tie the tower in with the aesthetic of the existing historic building.
The project will add 260 rental units to the Edmonton housing market, with townhomes, studios, one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations on offer. The project will put residents steps from the Grandin LRT station, and will offer a number of energy-efficient features in an effort to achieve LEED Silver certification. The first occupancies are currently slated to begin this fall.
