170 Metcalfe Apartments was converted from the Canada Red Cross office tower into a contemporary luxury apartment building in downtown Ottawa. Designed for the urban lifestyle, the project transformed a typical office space into a unique, amenity-filled, rental apartment building with 61 units.

From the ground floor to the roof top patio, new common spaces were thoughtfully designed to capture the residents' desire to live sustainably in a central location. The new amenity spaces on the ground floor and basement included a commercial retail space, fitness centre, business lounge, a tiered theatre room, and secure bike storage area. A lounge and party room extend to an outdoor roof top terrace with spectacular views of the city. The new residential units include features such as open concept kitchens with stainless-steel appliances, in-suite laundry and contemporary plumbing fixtures and LED lighting fixtures throughout.
