Completing in tandem with U Six in 2019, U Seven at 655 Academy Way mirrors its neighbour in unit count and layout philosophy — 57 residences spread across three storeys, with studios, two-bedrooms, and three-bedrooms available. Together, U Six and U Seven added 114 units to the street in a single year, reflecting the pace at which demand for University District housing was growing.
U Seven's position at the lower-middle section of Academy Way gives it a distinct advantage in terms of access: it sits at the crossroads between the university end of the street and the Academy Ridge townhome community at the south end. This location makes it convenient for residents who want to access both the campus and the broader University District's growing amenities.
Like U Six, U Seven's 57-unit size supports an efficient, well-managed strata with a close-knit ownership community. For investors, the building's three-bedroom units — designed for shared occupancy — have been reliable performers in a rental market consistently undersupplied relative to demand from UBCO's expanding student population.
