An artist's rendering of Hudson Place One. Now rising along the 700-block of Herald Street in downtown Victoria, the 25-storey tower will become Vancouver Island's tallest building upon completion in 2020. The sales campaign for the 176-unit condominium launches this Saturday at noon.

From the other thread, the Hudson District unit count:

 

176 - Hudson Place One
178 - Hudson Walk One
106 - Hudson Walk Two
120 - Hudson Mews
152 - The Hudson
= 732 units total

 

And still more to come, right? That's not too shabby for a block and a half. We're not talking about View Towers here. These are decent buildings.

Has it been determined how many residential units will be part of Hudson Place Two?

Approximately 170 last time I spoke with a Townline rep about that phase.

[Nparker]

So when complete the Hudson District will be around 900 units when finished. That's impressive.

Is that the last level of parking? I started taking regular pictures of the construction progress in late June (hope to do a time lapse video in the future) and it looks like only five floors of parking if they’re all truly underground.

Just got a notice through my work (I work in the Jack Davis) that HP1 will be pouring the foundation slab on Sat the 27th, 8am-8pm. That block of Herald St. will be closed for the duration.

Probably the first grade-level pour? They've been moving along quickly with the underground parking.

The tower is now at street level.

Does anyone know if they did the prep for the parking on the final tower at the same time as this or is it back to square one for the next tower

Blasting and excavation for HP2 parking is currently taking place.

I feel like the crown on this building was a missed opportunity. It should have been something truly iconic that would stand out. I would have liked the crown to be lit up and colour changing for special events etc. Like this

This is Victoria. The last thing any building should do is draw attention to its height. Do you want people to think we're a city or something?

If you're going to do an LED crown feature, at least go hard like Salesforce Tower in San Francisco! It was lit up to display the Eye of Sauron on Halloween this year.

You do realize that all those lights interfere with the migration of birds, which will lead the new CoV Council to ban all new buildings over four floors?

...the new CoV Council to ban all new buildings over four floors?

I am sure that is the plan anyway. All new construction will be short, wide, taxpayer-funded slums.
