Life Plaza Tower - Calgary

The existing fitness centre in this building had been designed in the early 1980's with little work put in over the past 25 years.  FRESH! was contracted to update the equipment, layout, desing and traffic flow to create a more usable space which provided exercise options to a greater percentage of the tenants.

While the structural layout of the existing floorplate was not ideal, the property owner wanted to avoid any significant demolition to keep the budget within prescribed limits.

Within the budget levels, we were able to assess the existing equipment, needs of the tenants, and patterns of facility use to create an exceptionally functional space which provides greater versatility and exercise options to compete with commercial gyms 4 or 5 times as large!

Tenants have been ecstatic about the changes to this facility!  Many have cancelled their memberships to other health clubs because they realize the new Life Plaza Facility can meet all of their fitness and exercise needs.

Since this facility has been re-opened, usage levels have increased almost 10 fold from pre-renovation levels!

FRESH! Fitness and their elite team of Calgary Personal Trainers now manage this facility for Dundee Realty.  FRESH! provides a full range of exclusive services for tenants including Personal Training, Fitness Bootcamp, Metabolism Testing, and Nutrition Coaching.

 Atrium Towers

The twin commercial towers in Calgary are managed by Dundee Realty and built in the early 1980's.  When FRESH! took over the fitness centre renovation contract, these facilities had not been touched since the original build-out in 1982.  They even had the original equipment.

Needless to say, there was some major work to do!

With the small allocated budget, we were able to give both of these buildings a complete facelift, updated equipment, and dramatically improved user experience.
