KENSINGTON GARDENS | WESTBANK

KENSINGTON-GARDENS-BY-WESTBANK

Kensington Gardens is an integrated urban community comprised of three unique residential towers, a collection of townhouses and a residential podium, linked by an elevated landscaped courtyard, a new park, lane and plaza.

This mixed-used development aims to make a meaningful contribution to the regeneration and revitalization of the very important Kingsway arterial route. The design of the project, which responds to the character and scale of its context, consists of three streetwall buildings integrated with three 14-storey residential towers—each with a distinct shape and identity. The buildings are linked by an elevated landscaped courtyard, which encompasses residential apartments, townhouses, and retail. The project includes significant urban gardens and public spaces for public engagement and enjoyment in the form of green roofs, a new plaza at the intersection of Kingsway and Gladstone, and a neighbourhood park.

The project’s comprehensive sustainability strategy targets LEED® Gold certification, and incorporates sunshading, stormwater collection for irrigation, and heat recovery.

The size of Kensington Gardens project is 410,000 sf and is comprised of:
•  Three 14-storey towers, 3 low rise residential buildings – two 4-storey and one 5-storey residential podium
•  A row of townhouses along East 30th Ave
•  Total 404 units, 151 one bedrooms, 14 one bedrooms + den, 190 two-bedrooms, 6 two bedrooms + den, 43 three-bedrooms,
•  Three levels of underground parking with 440 residential parking spots, 157 retail parking stalls and bicycle storage for 532 bikes
