  • Built 2005The year the City record gives for the building's construction. Where the City has no year, the page says Unknown rather than guessing. Methodology.
  • 126 unitsHow many residential units the City record lists for this address. A resident correction replaces the City figure when a verified representative confirms a different count. Methodology.
  • Construction unknownThe likely construction type, estimated from the storey count and the year built under the Alberta Building Code rules in the methodology. A moderator-confirmed value replaces the estimate. Methodology.
  • 0 short-term rental licencesThe number of active short-term rental licences the City has issued at this address. An address with no licence cannot lawfully offer short-term rentals. Methodology.

126 unitsHow confident the site is in the unit count: a resident correction, a National Address Register estimate, a plain City roll count, or unknown. The label travels with the number everywhere it appears. Methodology.

The storey count is an estimate from the building's LiDAR height divided by 3.1 m per storey, so a short or tall floor plan can shift it by one. It is labelled "estimated" wherever it appears. Methodology.

    The construction class is estimated from the storey count and year built under Alberta Building Code rules, not published by the City. A moderator-confirmed value replaces the estimate. Methodology.

    • year built: 2005
