PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Located in the heart of downtown Victoria, The Hudson District revitalizes the historic Hudson’s Bay building into a vibrant mixed-use urban hub. Phase 1 involved the adaptive reuse and restoration of the original department store, transforming it into market residential suites above a ground-floor commercial space. A contemporary façade was introduced to the east elevation to strengthen the pedestrian realm while maintaining respect for the building’s heritage character.

Phase 2 introduced Hudson Mews, an 11-storey residential tower with ground-floor commercial space, contributing to increased density and connectivity in the area. This phase supports the long-term vision of a multi-tower, pedestrian-friendly development that blends old and new while improving urban livability.

This project is part of a larger master plan to reimagine the northern edge of Victoria’s downtown core, offering a mix of residential, retail, and public realm improvements that serve both the local community and broader region.
