At 23 storeys, Landmark 7 will be the tallest office tower in Kelowna. And it will open for business in May of next year.
"This is the largest office tower between Vancouver and Calgary," said an excited Dallas Gray. We spoke to him as the Stober Group invited guests to the unfinished 23rd floor this week.
Despite a shift toward working from home, there seems little concern about whether there will be enough interest from the business community.
"We're seeing more and more companies from the large centres, Vancouvers and other," said Gray, "that want to relocate or expand into markets like Kelowna because there's great views, there's open space and there's quality of life."
The building includes 6 floors of parking, fitness facilities, end of bike-ride facilities and a conference centre on a seventh-floor podium with room for 350 people.
"This really is the crown jewel of Landmark," said Gray.
Among the guests were representatives of Wellington-Altus, the investment firm has already secured the entire top floor.
"It takes your breath away when you get to the top of this tower," said Curtis Cousins of Wellington-Altus.
"We had a great vision of what it was going to look like, but when you step off that man-lift it's just absolutely incredible."
The building is scheduled to open in May of 2022 with the conference centre opening later in the year.
