When you walk through the doors of Seventh Street Lofts, you don’t just enter a condo building — you step into Edmonton’s history. Originally built in 1929 as the John Deere Warehouse, this striking brick and beam landmark has been reimagined by DUB Architects into one of the city’s most coveted addresses for artists, musicians, entrepreneurs, and urban explorers.
And in a city filled with cookie-cutter condos, it’s worth knowing: there are only about 200 true historic lofts across Edmonton. Living here isn’t just about owning real estate — it’s about joining a rare community of people who value authenticity, creativity, and character.
Inside the Loft: 945 SQFT of Creative Freedom
Unit #208 isn’t your typical one-bedroom. It’s a 945 SQFT top-floor corner loft with an energy all its own.
You’re greeted by exposed brick walls, soaring 13 ft wood-beam ceilings, and oversized south- and east-facing windows that flood the space with sunlight. Morning light spills across concrete floors and highlights textures of brick and fir beams, setting the stage for inspiration.
The open-concept design makes this loft incredibly versatile. Whether you’re a musician with a grand piano, an artist who needs studio space, or someone who just loves big, airy living rooms filled with plants — this unit adapts to your life, not the other way around.
The kitchen is modern and practical, with stainless steel appliances and an island perfect for wine nights or slow Sunday brunches.
The bedroom is private and cozy, anchored by a massive wardrobe system that feels more boutique than apartment.
The bathroom has been fully renovated — sleek, modern, and spa-like.
The brand new A/C ensures that even in the peak of summer, your loft and everything inside it stays cool.
This isn’t just a condo. It’s a canvas.
Building Vibes: Seventh Street Lofts Community
Living in Seventh Street Lofts means surrounding yourself with people who choose character over convention. The building itself exudes industrial chic, from its warehouse heritage to its modern upgrades. Residents here tend to be:
Artists & musicians, who love the natural light and raw finishes.
Entrepreneurs & creatives, drawn to the building’s unique identity.
Design lovers, who crave something more authentic than drywall boxes.
It’s a building where neighbuors appreciate individuality, pets are welcome, and short-term rentals (Airbnb) are allowed — giving you flexibility in how you live and invest.
The Neighborhood: Downtown Edmonton’s Creative Core
Step outside, and you’re right in the heart of Downtown Edmonton. Life here is about energy, culture, and convenience:
MacEwan University is just steps away, keeping the neighborhood young and vibrant.
The Ice District with Rogers Place, concerts, and Oilers games is around the corner.
The Downtown Farmers Market is an easy stroll — fresh food, local vendors, and weekend energy.
Cafés, craft breweries, live music venues, and galleries are all within walking distance.
Soon, a new LRT station will connect you directly to the University of Alberta and the river valley.
Living here means you don’t just go out — you’re already in the middle of it all.
Bonus: Live With Local Art
Right now, the loft is staged with the work of local artist Jai Tanninen — bold, thought-provoking pieces that play perfectly against the raw textures of brick and concrete. Even better? The art is for sale.
Imagine moving in and curating your loft with Edmonton’s own creative voice — owning not just a home, but a lifestyle layered in history and artistry.
