Makes sense. If they still have units in the other two towers and no interest for more, why would they rush the other one…
according to Orchard Park Properties, they are anticipating a 2027 sales launch for the final tower. The building often has to be 50 - 70% sold before their banks will release construction financing, therefore a construction date is not confirmed. The absolute earliest this tower can break down would be early 2028. Orchard Park Properties did state that they are waiting out the market, and would like to sell their current inventory before constructing more.

UPDATE: The anticipated 2027 completion is highly unlikely, now looking towards mid-to-late 2028.

It's interesting to see how Kelowna continues to grow and develop. I also enjoy exploring creative businesses and custom designs, recently came across embroideredpatchescanada.ca while looking at embroidery ideas. It's always nice to discover different creative approaches and local business perspectives.

Woah! Pretty exciting.
I love to see all the reshaping of downtown. Hopefully, they will have a unique vision for mixed-use space.
Some finally good news,
A major developer just bought downtown Kelowna's prime waterfront property — right across from City Park.
Calgary's Arlington Street Group bought four parcels at Abbott Street and Leon Avenue, totaling almost 0.75 acres. It sits directly across from The Eli — the 42-storey tower that's currently the tallest building in BC's Interior.
The Huber family behind Prestige Hotels sold the land, though they kept the Prestige Beach House hotel next door.
The purchase price wasn't disclosed, but the assembly was listed for almost $16 million in 2023. This year's assessment came in at $11.1 million, with the existing office building accounting for just $100,000 of that total.
So what's going up on this corner? Arlington hasn't shared any plans yet, but they've already posted a sign on the building reading, "Envision what ought to be there."
They plan to run community planning workshops to help shape their proposal before submitting official plans to the city.

Tom Dyas has been re-elected as Mayor of the city of Kelowna. Hopefully this guarantees our downtown hotel by the end of the decade.

2nd floor going up. Felt like 1st floor took 1 1/2 weeks to frame.

Jack B about UBCO Downtown
Urban Legend, Oct 07, 2026
If I am counting correctly, they are at level 9 based on your picture. Also, they mentioned they are planning to launch the education part of the building earlier than the residential part. Wondering what that will look like for continuous construction.
UBCO downtown still at floor 8. If we don’t see 1 floor per week starting late October, we may not see the targeted completion of late 2027.
