205 9th Ave SE in downtown Calgary

We won’t make you scroll through the pitch just to find the building address. Rather…

We want to know what you want. Sunrise, sunset, or city views? Or maybe you’d prefer to watch the Stampede fireworks from your own balcony. High or low, let us know.

We want you to stay as long as you wish, without complicated lease terms, unexpected costs, enormous deposits, or what your family might think of the building (because they’ll love it!)

But don’t just take our word, book a tour and see for yourself.

We want you to love living here

Check with the leasing office. It is always best to schedule moves to least impact other tenants.

The majors: 1) A large community creative room for tenants to paint, play, and craft that you don’t need to reserve or book. 2) A large private gathering room that you will need to reserve/book. 3) A large fitness room with fitness equipment. 4) Bike storage, 5) Pet/Bike wash area.

Probably, as that’s all part of living downtown. Let’s call it ambiance. 😄 All kidding aside, we installed double-layer glass and a sound-attenuating building curtain as part of the building conversion to reduce the potential for excessive noise. Keep in mind that if you have your windows open, you’ll definitely hear the city.

We’re SO glad you asked. HAT apartments are family owned, constructed, and operated. Headwear fashion designer Tamara Itani inspired her family on the topic and they ran with it.

Family owned and operated Cidex Group of Companies transformed, owns, and manages the former TEC building. The mid-century modern expression building features unique studio spaces for residents. Located in a vibrant arts and culture district, The HAT @ 9th retains its architectural heritage while contributing to the revitalization of Calgary’s urban core. As a catalyst for downtown renewal, this adaptive reuse project adheres to sustainability best practices through its reuse of existing infrastructure and plays a role in delivering much-needed housing diversity in Calgary and Alberta.
