The Bow front and centre on Calgary sublease market
When the Bow tower was built in 2012 in the heart of Calgary, it was a symbol to the rest of the world the city was an economic powerhouse. The just under two-million-square-foot, 58-storey skyscraper, the tallest one west of Toronto at the time, was Encana’s signature headquarters building in the oilpatch, illustrating the company’s success and the city’s stature on the global energy front.
Canadian hotel market remains strong: Colliers
The Canadian hotel industry is still firing on all cylinders, having gained strength in each year but one in the current cycle that began in 2011. “Several factors beyond regular buyer-seller-lender dynamics have come into play that have dramatically enhanced the appeal of the country’s lodging sector and provided promise for continued activity,” said Colliers International hotels senior analyst Fraser Macdonald.
Montreal’s Olympic Stadium Tower becomes office space
Montreal’s Olympic Stadium tower is getting a new lease on life – literally – with new commercial office space inside the inclined structure being leased for the first time.

Six Months Ago: CT REIT caps busiest acquisition year
Despite president and CEO Ken Silver’s contention “that being a boring REIT is not a bad thing,” CT REIT has come off an uncharacteristically exciting year, racking up a total of 16 acquisitions, three developments and 10 intensifications in ongoing developments for a total cost of $598 million.
One year ago: Artis REIT’s future is more America, less Alberta
Eight months into 2016, it is fair to characterize the year as tumultuous and transformational for Artis REIT. The Winnipeg-based diversified real estate asset holder has been busy buying, selling, keeping a wary eye on the Alberta wildfires and began what became a very public effort to sell a stake in its Calgary office portfolio.
