Restaurants finally opening in new Kelly Ramsey tower

It's been more than eight years since Edmontonians were able to enjoy a meal in the Kelly Ramsey building on Rice Howard Way.

That's about to change soon.

A massive fire destroyed the historic building in March 2009, and in 2013 it was demolished to make way for a new office tower that opened in 2016, complete with the original Kelly Ramsey building facade.

The new 25-storey tower, officially known as Enbridge Centre, has a 92-per-cent occupancy rate but the storefront level on Rice Howard Way hasn't yet opened for business.

Brown paper still covers the windows on the main floor but inside, things are happening.

Anyone walking beside the new Enbridge Centre on Rice Howard Way downtown would barely notice the towering glass and steel office tower high above. The top is set so far back, the smaller-scale, historic Kelly-Ramsey building is all a passerby can really see at street level.

Sure it’s only the facade, said Thorne, but it’s done well. “It still feels like it has heritage character.”

Enbridge Centre also won for the way the developer improved the pedestrian street, adding granite benches and large planters that attract office workers outside on a nice day.

The developer wanted to upgrade the design. “All of that was them,” said Holdsworth. “Hopefully it’s going to set the template for the rest of Rice Howard Way,” he added.

The city is developing plans now for the rest of the downtown street, hoping to present it in a capital plan to council.
