The OMNI commercial project lands, located near the intersection of Stoney Trail and Airport Trail in Rocky View County, has been approved for commercial uses by Alberta’s Municipal Government board.

The OMNI by Genesis Land Development Corp. is a 185-acre master-planned multi-use commercial destination strategically located adjacent to the burgeoning north east side of the City of Calgary.

The proposed mixed-use development will include 600,000 square feet of retail, a 325,000 square foot outlet centre, 3 boutique hotels, 250 senior active living units, 500,000 square feet of office space, a children’s creativity zone, restaurants and more.

“Branded as The OMNI, this new generation town centre destination is envisioned to be comprised of various retail, commercial and leisure concepts and elements that are intended to be constructed over the next several years,” said Arnie Stefaniuk, VP, land development with Genesis.

The approval is the culmination of an intensive planning and consultation process between Rocky View County, the City of Calgary and Genesis.

“Genesis is excited to be able to move the planning process forward for these 185 acres and to make this multi-faceted and unique master planned destination a reality,” Iain Stewart, president and chief executive officer of Genesis.
