West Broadway Commons

The West Broadway Commons is an innovative joint venture development between UWCRC 2.0 and All Saints Anglican Church. The development has 110 mixed-income apartments with 2,400 sq. ft. of street-level commercial space.

West Broadway Commons offers a range of unit types, including studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom apartments. Suites consist of luxury, premium, market and affordable units. All units are accessible (visitable) with several units designed to be universally accessible (washrooms with roll-in shower, accessible kitchen, etc.).

Designed to create community, the building features shared spaces that bring residents together. The building features an impressive 9th-floor community room and large outdoor terrace with skyline views of downtown Winnipeg and the provincial legislative grounds. Shared building amenities include a fitness room, laundry facility, indoor bike storage, and resident memberships for a car co-op.

The project fills a significant void of affordable and accessible housing in downtown Winnipeg and was delivered through an Integrated Project Delivery approach with construction managers Bockstael Construction.
