GROW is a 20-unit, multi-residential housing project that cultivates a diverse inner-city community through its varying unit sizes and a barrier-free, 0.2-ha (0.6-acre) rooftop urban farm.
This space introduces urban horticulture to its residents through private gardens, vegetative roofs, and apiaries.
The units suit a range of ages and family sizes, including small 42-m2 (450-sf) studios, medium-sized 56-m2 (600-sf) condos, 1.5-storey lofts, and large 79 to 93 m2 (850 to 1,000 sf) two-storey townhomes.
The building’s residents fall within the entire demographic spectrum. They can participate in all facets of farming, including spring planting, daily maintenance and care, harvesting, and engaging with the broader community of Calgary.
The project is designed by Modern Office of Design + Architecture.
