The momentum downtown is stronger than ever following a transformative year in our shared efforts to revitalize downtown Calgary, capped by the exciting announcement of the details of nine new office conversion projects.
2025 saw several major milestones achieved downtown - from the arts and culture evolutions at The Werklund Centre, Glenbow and Contemporary Calgary, to building the future of sports and entertainment at Scotia Place, to the unveiling of new parks and safer public spaces like the new Eau Claire Plaza, and revitalization projects bringing new life to Olympic Plaza, Stephen Avenue and 8 Street S.W. - all propelling the downtown core forward.
"Just a few short years ago, downtown Calgary was in a tough spot. Today we are on the path for a strong recovery, spurred on by new investment, innovation, and a sense of optimism and collaboration. Cities across the world are looking to Calgary's example of how to inspire strategic investment and meaningful revitalization. Most importantly, downtown is welcoming Calgarians to live in the heart of the city with thousands of new homes coming to the market." - Mayor Jeromy Farkas
