Canlight unveils plans for Radio Arts residence in Hamilton
CANLIGHT—The Radio Arts project from Canlight Realty Corporation will reflect the heritage of the former CHIQ radio building on the King Street West site in Hamilton.

HAMILTON, ONT.—Canlight Realty Corporation has announced plans for a 14-storey residential highrise to rise at 206 King St. W. at the corner of Caroline Street in Hamilton.  

Canlight, the developer behind the Pigott Building in Hamilton, is positioning the Radio Arts project as a link to the former CHIQ radio building on the site, stated a recent release. Radio Arts will have a four-storey podium paying homage to the original 1908 building design in its masonry details and arched windows. Other features include ground-floor retail, a fitness studio and coworking lounge. Rising above the podium, the black and white cladded residential tower will have staggered balconies.

“Ever since my work on the Pigott Building, I have been fascinated by the home-grown creative energy and entrepreneurial spirit that is reshaping Hamilton,” stated Vernon Shaw, president of Canlight, in a statement. “I’ve always loved the eclectic architectural charm of downtown Hamilton, so when it came to Radio Arts, I wanted to make sure it reflected the unique fabric of downtown, while also recognizing Hamilton’s renaissance of youthful, creative energy.”

Hunter Milborne has been brought on as the design and development team. KNYMH Inc. and Baudit Interior Design are other consultants.
Other heritage components will include an original tile floor of the former broadcasting station with tile that spells out Radio Arts, original beams and metal barn-style doors.
