The Toronto development team of Lamb Development Corp and Fortress Real Developments are building a new 31-storey addition to Calgary's Beltline district, which has begun cladding installation. 6th and Tenth will contain about 230 one-bedroom to two-bedroom plus den units ranging from 450 to 1,950 square feet. Starting from the low $200,000s CAD, the more expensive layouts are expected to fetch $1 million and above.

Suites feature a ceiling height of nine feet in principal rooms, with floor-to-ceiling windows opening up to balconies. Concrete walls and ceilings accompanied by stone kitchen countertops and pre-finished engineered wood flooring lend a raw interior aesthetic to the living spaces.

Residents are in store for a wide selection of amenities to enjoy, including a gym, outdoor patio, and a landscaped forecourt with playful water features. A five-star restaurant and several retail spaces will mark the ground plane experience. Land of Horses, an art installation by Chilean sculptor Francisco Gazitua in the form of two 18-foot steel horses, will activate the public realm.

The first few panels of the window wall glazing system portray a contrasting facade. White and dark grey spandrel glass have begun covering the building's floor slabs and mechanical components, while dark glazing yields a rich juxtaposition. The Core Architects-designed tower is scheduled to receive its first round of residents in 2017.
