The figure below provides a brief description of what each building block calls for. The Developed Areas Guidebook contains policy that is applied in conjunction with the policies of this Area Redevelopment Plan. It provides the basic building blocks for neighbourhood and community development. This Plan describes how those building blocks are arranged to support neighbourhoods and communities. Combined, they provide the policy for community growth.
In some cases, there may be no additional policy in this Plan for a particular item. In such cases, the Developed Areas Guidebook, the Municipal Development Plan or other relevant City policies apply. However, this Plan takes precedence in the event of any conflict between policies.

9 Avenue S.E.
Replacing the bridge
Construction access
9 Avenue S.E. will remain open during construction. A temporary road and bridge
will be provided before work begins on the new bridge.
Legend
7 Street S.E. is temporarily closing for
the duration of construction for the
project. The City is currently reviewing its
permanent closure, based on the future
road network in the area
Vehicle access will be provided across the
temporary bridge, to 8 Street S.E.,
along 9 Avenue S.E., and to Deane House
and Fort Calgary
Walking and cycling access will be
provided on pathways, sidewalks and
the north bridge (Elbow River Traverse)
Proposed detour road
Proposed detour bridge
Construction activities
We know that construction can be disruptive, so we are working to mitigate
the issues below:
Trees: In order to build the temporary bridge and new road, we will need to remove
some trees and vegetation during construction. After construction of the new bridge
is completed we will replace the trees within the area. Any trees that will be removed
for construction work will be signed for removal two weeks prior to being removed.
We are working on a landscaping plan for the riverbed and area. It will show where
new trees and vegetation will be planted. Once finalized, the landscaping plan will
be available on Calgary.ca/9avebridge
Noise: Construction is noisy, so we’re working to determine when the best time to do
the noisiest work is, to lessen the impact to the neighbourhood.
Vibration: With bridge construction comes work , such as piling, that creates vibrations.
We will do our best to lessen the impacts to the neighbourhood from vibrations
caused by construction work.

Under the City of Calgary Area redevelopment plan, a development project (‘receiver site’, in this case 907- 915 Avenue se) may increase density by transferring unused, residual density from a heritage resource (‘Donor site’, sibley block, 921 9th st se).
This Density Transfer will occur at the time of Land Use Application Approval and will be reflected on the Land Title.

The history of inglewood is what has made the neighborhood rich in character, and we aim to build a project that recognizes and celebrates this history. To do so, we have performed numerous studies of the architectural character of the neighbourhood, heavily referenced archival documents, and drew from our own experience working in historically sensitive areas.
The story begins in the 1880’s when the City developed the main street, and Atlantic Avenue into a residential, commercial, and industrial neighbourhood. in recognition of its historic architecture, the City declared inglewood a special Heritage Character Area in 1991, leading to a joint Alberta main street Programme and inglewood business revitalization zone restoration initiative.

we believe it is important to preserve the historic fabric of inglewood.

[...the Sibley Block has been an integral component of the retail and commercial activity which made 9th Avenue S.E. East Calgary’s high street, and one of Calgary’s historic principle commercial thoroughfares. (Activity Value, Community significance)
The Sibley Block is an attractive and relatively intact Edwardian Commercial commercial-residential building, with a lower façade design which is distinctive for the 9th Avenue commercial street. The symmetrical red-brick façade features brick voussoirs over the large central display window and entrance, and distinctive corbelled brick cornices. (Style Value, Community significance)
The Sibley Block’s architectural character makes it an important contributor to 9th Avenue’s historical and highly intact streetscape. (Style Value, Community significance)...]
Character Defining elements (Excerpts from City of Calgary Website)
- Form, scale and massing (two-storey, rectangular plan with narrow façade); - Flat roof with plain brick parapet with corbelled brick detailing; - Woodframe construction with original red-brick cladding with stretcher bond pattern; - Fenestration pattern on all façades; large central display window; large multi-pane upper windows with radiating voussoirs; brick sills; radiating voussoirs on rear and side elevations;

a study of the neighbourhood and archival documents informed our understanding of the heritage and our design concept.
sibley block, 921 9th Ave se fire station no. 3
9th Ave se is home to many beautiful historic buildings which use brick and stone facades design aesthetic punctuated by regular window openings, strong piers, limestone accents, and a cornice - a classical tripartite hierarchy. A similar design aesthetic was used in our proposal, consisting of windows on a grid that are animated by arches, and the use of facade materials that celebrate the neighbourhood’s heritage.
The Historical Walking Tour document seen below provides a charming overview of the neighbourhood and is where the story of fire station no. 3, once the community center in inglewood, was discovered. A facade study revealed the strength of its arches in providing an architectural identity.
A study of Hungerford’s neighbouring property, sibley block, also revealed several historical design elements. These elements informed the material of our proposal, the portions of the facade grid, and the architectural language of arches, found referenced in 921 9th Ave se’s windows and fire station no.3’s fire truck bays - rather than fire trucks, the openings created by the arches are re purposed to provide large shop front windows.
The following architectural expressions inspired our design (i.e. brick, concrete, and metal cladding).
note: Detailed design will be confirmed at the Development Permit stage.
