ahmadmz Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Do people know which buildings are good to start looking at for accommodation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eudaimonia Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I found that the area around the Sugar Bowl had many med students living there. I'd look there if I were you, it's close to groceries and is walking distance to the hospital/school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
propofolsquad Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I used to live in the Sir John Franklin Apartments (just across from the Telus building). The rent was really expensive, parking was 100$/month and they shut off the water.... a lot... BUT it was so nice to be that close. It was definitely doable with room mates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty2222 Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Many meds live in Windsor Park Plaza which is super nice, super close to UAH but very expensive. Concord tower is right across the street from windsor park plaza and is much less expensive. Campus housing: Newton Place houses many graduate students and families, right across from UAH. As well many live in the condo complexes by the UAH (garneu mews, university place, the place on 111th and 84ave that I can't figure out the name of) as well as on saskatchewan drive east of 109 St. Galen lofts is a good option if you are not opposed to loft style-housing. Lots of good places around it just depends on your price point especially if you have a vehicle and need to pay for parking. Concord tower is a good compromise of space, price and location, in my opinion, although it lacks some things like balconies (but is across from 2 parks), underground parking (but it does have parking) and a few of the fancier options like a pool etc. (but who has the time haha). You can also look along the LRT around southgate and century park. Downtown is also an option to be along the LRT line although it may be more expensive. I am not familiar with living north of downtown so I can't advise you on that. I've heard mixed reviews about Garneu Towers, the price point is good though.
