Keynote in Calgary is a highly sought-after condominium complex with two residential towers and one office/retail tower. Developed by Balboa Investments, Keynote One and Two is home to 429 total condominiums, located a few blocks south of downtown in the walkable Betline community. The development's exceptional in-house amenities, including a state-of-the-art fitness centre and grocery store and cafe/restaurant, make it highly sought-after by many young urbanites looking to live, work and play in the City Centre District.

Keynote Location & Amenities

Located in the Beltline, Keynote condos for sale are ideally situated in a highly walkable location close to street-level shops, restaurants, and cultural destinations like the Stampede Grounds and Calgary Event Centre.

Keynote’s bottom-floor retail space is home to Sunterra, a local health-focused grocery store, cafe, and restaurant, providing easy access to groceries. Underground parking includes roughly 700 lots on four different levels. Retail spaces are located at the top levels of the underground parkade, with residential spaces below.

In short, Keynote condominiums provide the maximum convenience many urbanites desire.

Keynote Real Estate

Inside Keynote Calgary, all units have floor-to-ceiling windows and 9-foot standard ceilings.

Interior specifications include granite counters, hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances and designer finishes throughout. Undoubtedly, the Keynote Urban Village is geared towards younger generations, with mostly one-bedroom suites in each building. The size of these condos ranges from 566 to 675 square feet. A limited number of two-bedroom apartments are around 850 square feet in size.
