A new anchor
for west 17 Avenue.
West 17 is a transit-oriented, mid-rise, mixed-use development assisting with the high-quality urban transformation of the 17 Avenue SW Main Street corridor.
Situated within quick walking distance of two Blue Line LRT stations and located along the Primary Transit corridor, Truman's West 17 provides housing, neighbourhood-focused retail, services, and amenities in an area that supports neighbourhood and economic vitality.
