Located in the Trinity-Bellwoods neighbourhood, this 10-storey mass timber development will provide 74 new rental homes, including at least 17 affordable rental homes and family-sized units for the community. Other features include commercial space at grade, indoor and outdoor amenity areas, and a single storey of bicycle parking.

The building is comprised of reinforced concrete foundations and a slab on grade at the ground level. The superstructure features 10 storeys of point-supported, two-way spanning CLT floor panels supported by glulam columns, and a steel framed one-storey mechanical penthouse. The main building is stabilized laterally by a central reinforced concrete core, and the penthouse is also supported by the concrete core and perimeter steel braced frames.

Construction began in Summer 2026, with completion anticipated in 2028.
