Icon Towers, Skyscraper in downtown Edmonton, Canada.
Icon Towers is a 35-story residential skyscraper in downtown Edmonton that reaches 112 meters in height. The building features two connected towers sharing a common base that houses apartments, retail shops, and office spaces across its levels.
Icon Towers opened in 2010 and marked the beginning of a new development phase in Edmonton's skyline. The project benefited from relaxed height restrictions that had previously been limited due to airport operations.
The building reflects Edmonton's shift toward vertical urban development following the relaxation of height restrictions that were previously limited by airport operations.
The building sits on 104 Street just north of Jasper Avenue and is easily accessible on foot from surrounding areas. Ground-level retail spaces and services open directly onto the street, making it convenient to explore from outside.
The total investment of 208 million Canadian dollars in the Icon Towers project demonstrates Edmonton's commitment to large-scale urban development projects.
