The Block is Avi Urban’s first four-storey low-rise development, and it has proven to be a hit with its ideal location on vibrant 17th Avenue and the corner of 8th Street S.W.

The Block is a boutique collection of 61 homes for 61 different people. Available from the mid-$200s, the building is created to be a community by being centered around the unique courtyard, says Avi Urban sales manager Chris Pollen.

“At Avi Urban, we wanted to create a community within a community, where you can enjoy everything 17th Avenue has to offer,” he says.

The Block offers a selection of one-bedroom suites and two- and three-bedroom townhomes. “The one-bedroom homes are an incredible value in the heart of 17th. Starting in the mid $200,000s, all one-bedrooms are steps away from 17th Avenue and the private courtyard. Plus, all one-bedroom homes include an underground parking spot.”

Pollen adds that the sales centre on 200 - 1022 17th Avenue has been open for three weeks and they have managed to sell 15 per cent of the homes in that span.

“Our sales center is a full scale example of the one-bedroom home, where buyers can experience what makes design of The Block so unique and functional.”

Customizable options like choosing the colour of your front door and mixing up your floorplan with built-ins are only the beginning. Since all one bedroom homes at The Block are at least 600 square-feet, buyers have the space to make it their own.
