Description

Calgarys iconic Hudsons Bay building, a 114-year-old downtown landmark, is set to change hands. Local firm Astra Real Estate Corp has signed a deal to purchase the mostly vacant building, aiming to complete the transaction by May 2026. Known for transforming old offices into homes, Astra plans to breathe new life into the building, potentially creating a mix of shops, residences, and event spaces. The buildings future has been a topic of concern due to its lack of historic protection and the need for extensive repairs. However, the sale presents an opportunity to preserve and revitalize a significant piece of Calgarys skyline.
