The Edmonton Arena District Development offers a new vision of urban value in the heart of downtown Edmonton. This major revitalisation effort re-locates the home of the Oilers NHL hockey team to the city centre, and includes new retail and commercial space, a hotel, two 33-storey residential towers, and significant public realm amenities to serve the greater Edmonton population. To encourage and enhance walkability, the master plan leverages existing thoroughfares and a nearby LRT station. It provides for promenades, vehicular and pedestrian access points and gives citizens of Edmonton a new central public plaza overlooked by amenities chosen to attract a diverse mix of users, day and night, year round.
In addition to the master plan, HPA designed and oversaw the construction of the 55-storey JW Marriott luxury hotel and condominiums.
