Radio Arts Condos is a New Condo development by Canlight Realty located at King St & Caroline St N, Hamilton.
At 14-storeys, 122 suites, it’s an intimate condominium conceptualized by KNYMH Architects that has been designed in the spirit of the past while rising up for a beautiful second act. The four-storey brick podium and arched windows gives a nod to the original 1908 architecture while a black and white tower of glass and artful staggered terraces, balconies and Juliets adds a modern contrast to the masonry.
The original building located at 206 King Street West was built in 1908 to house a Hamilton shirt manufacturer called The Regal Shirt Company. In the late 50’s the address became known as the Radio Arts building because it was home to brand new radio station, CHIQ. In the late 60’s Hamilton Store Fixtures moved in and it became the brown cladded
building on the corner of King & Caroline.
As the design team peeled back layers, they discovered an original mosaic tile floor from the former broadcasting
station era that spells out ‘Radio Arts.’ This became the inspiration for naming the development. Other architectural details such as original beams and metal barn-style doors will be salvaged and reincorporated into the new building and will inspire the passion and pride in this next rich chapter.
Radio Arts is ready to give its residents, and a new generation a place to feel inspired, connect, create, build a life, and call home. Be part of what’s next.
