Strategic Group Converting Former Chevron Office Tower to Residential
AI Article Summary

Strategic Group is transforming the former Chevron office tower in downtown Calgary into a residential building with 332 units. The developer purchased the 25-storey tower for $17 million but is not using the city's Downtown Development Incentive Program for the conversion. Originally built by Chevron in 1982, the building offers strategic advantages for residential conversion due to its excellent floorplate and location near key transit lines. The conversion is part of a broader trend of energy firms downsizing and repurposing office spaces in response to economic shifts and the pandemic.
