ARC 33
Six storeys of residential, commercial, and live-work.
The 33rd avenue continues to become a destination for urban collisions, human pedestrians, small business growth, and new people coming into the community, calling it home.
ARC 33's name comes from the building thoughtfully interacting with the pedestrian realm using inviting curves. It reduces the impact on adjacent properties with its U shaped footprint, naturally creating a backyard for residents.
