200 - 8 Avenue SW

Located in the heart of downtown Calgary, 200 8 Avenue SW is a premium commercial property that seamlessly blends historical significance with modern sophistication. Originally constructed in 1913, this architectural landmark has been a cornerstone of Stephen Avenue, Calgary’s original historic main street. Expanded in the late 1920s, its elegant arcade is reminiscent of Paris’s famed Rue de Rivoli and remains the only known example of its kind in North America. Constructed with steel and reinforced concrete, and clad in terra-cotta, the building’s monumental design reflects groundbreaking construction technology of the early 20th century.

Now home to modern businesses, 200 8 Avenue SW retains its historical charm while offering seamless access to the +15 network, retail, and dining options. Its proximity to public transit, including the CTrain and major roadways, enhances connectivity for tenants and visitors. A true blend of heritage and modernity, this building remains a prestigious address in one of Canada’s most vibrant urban centers.
