Richmond-based developer Townline has applied to the City of Victoria to build a 16-storey mixed-use rental and commercial tower on the southwest corner of Caledonia and Blanshard streets.

The building is the second phase of Townline's Hudson Walk development, a continuation to the north of the multi-phased Hudson Place project that includes the restored former Hudson's Bay Department Store on Douglas Street.

The first phase of Hudson Walk, currently under construction, is a 16-storey tower with 178 rental apartments and 2,690 square feet of ground floor commercial space.

Construction is expected to begin by late 2015 or early 2016 with completion in 2017. C
