Fifth Avenue Place, Office skyscraper in Downtown Calgary, Canada

Fifth Avenue Place is an office complex in downtown Calgary consisting of two 35-floor towers that reach 133 meters in height and are arranged in an L-shaped configuration. The towers are connected by a two-level shopping gallery and the Plus 15 skywalk system, which allows pedestrians to move between the buildings and access neighboring structures.

Construction of Fifth Avenue Place began in 1979 and the complex was completed in 1981, at the height of Calgary's 1980s oil boom. It was first known as Esso Plaza and now takes its name from its block between 4th and 5th Avenue South. Brookfield Properties manages the two towers.

The complex's name comes from Fifth Avenue South, the street it fronts between 1st and 2nd Street West. Its two-level shopping galleria links the towers and opens onto Calgary's Plus 15 skywalk network, so pedestrians pass through the block indoors. The towers were originally called Esso Plaza, a name tied to the oil company presence during the 1980s boom.

The complex includes a three-level underground parking facility with space for 793 vehicles, making it accessible for those arriving by car. The Plus 15 skywalk system allows visitors to explore the area and access neighboring buildings even during bad weather.

The complex was originally called Esso Plaza, a name tied to the oil company, before becoming Fifth Avenue Place. Its three-level underground parkade holds 793 parking stalls beneath the full city block. The two towers were finished in 1981, at the height of the 1980s oil boom that reshaped downtown Calgary.
