1150 Memorial Dr NW, Calgary, AB T2N 5E1 · Hillhurst
1 Bed · 1 Bath
Aspen & Bow sits along Memorial Drive NW where Kensington's low-rise streetscape meets the Bow River pathway system, and the building's five-storey profile was designed to fit that scale rather than tower over it. Anthem Properties kept this collection deliberately small — just 93 rental homes across one, two, and three bedroom layouts — which gives the building a boutique feel that's uncommon among Calgary's larger rental developments. The architecture leans into a contemporary reading of classic design cues, a nod to the character that defines the surrounding Kensington blocks rather than a break from them. Living here means stepping directly onto the riverside pathway for a run or a walk into downtown, which sits only minutes away, making the daily commute or a weekend outing equally simple. Inside, suites are built for people who want real bedroom counts and livable layouts rather than compact studios, suiting professionals, couples, and small families alike. Kensington itself remains one of Calgary's more established inner-city neighbourhoods, known for its independent shops and walkable streets, and Aspen & Bow's address puts residents close to that daily texture without sacrificing the calm of a residential riverside setting. For renters weighing downtown access against neighbourhood charm, this is a building that resolves that tension by offering both, anchored to the Bow River and Memorial Drive corridor rather than a generic downtown-adjacent postcode.”
