Untold City: Sierra Place Tour

Join d.talks on a tour of an office building conversion called Sierra Place that will provide 92 units of affordable housing in downtown Calgary. Developed by HomeSpace, a nonprofit organization that provides safe, appropriate, and affordable housing for vulnerable Calgarians, and in partnership with the Calgary Drop-in Centre, this 10-storey development will be converted from office to residential in the summer of 2022.

The tour will take us through the history of the building and discuss the process of the conversion. From the massive HVAC system in the basement to the office floors that will be converted into residences, we will visit the present and the future of the design. Guiding us will be Jonny Hehr, Managing Director of Design at Gibbs Gage Architects (Architect AAA) and Matt Vermunt, Director of Acquisition and Development at HomeSpace Society, in conversation with d.talks volunteer Lili Wang.
