An Historic Community of Recrafted & Re-Imagined Courtyard Homes

Built in 1910, the Broadhurst + Whitaker Block is one of the oldest commercial and residential buildings in Cedar Cottage. Now, Hudson Projects is carefully restoring the building, adding a third storey with rental apartments, and constructing a new 4-storey residential lowrise on the lane. Called Broadhurst & Whitaker, this mixed-use development consists of 1- and 2-bedroom condominiums and stacked townhomes, four market rental units, and four street level merchant storefronts. Classic Edwardian-era architectural and decorative details are being preserved to celebrate the building’s heritage, including original fir floors, tin ceilings and the incorporation of exposed metal structural elements. All homes feature an outdoor space, such as a balcony, patio, or rooftop terrace. Residents also have access to a central landscaped courtyard.

Broadhurst & Whitaker is located in an eclectic neighbourhood with a mix of small businesses, coffee shops, an art gallery, and multi-family residential buildings. Young families will be ideally situated with Lord Selkirk Elementary School at the south end of Commercial Street and the numerous recreational amenities of Trout Lake nearby. Enjoy a variety of events just a short walk away at the Croatian Cultural Centre, or hop on a bus to Commercial-Broadway Station for festivals and games downtown. With the sheer variety of restaurants, independent shops, and professional services lining Commercial Drive, you’ll find everything you need in an enviable mix of culture, leisure, and community.
