Telus to build office and innovation centre in downtown Victoria

Telus will be opening its regional headquarters in downtown Victoria, B.C. The national carrier plans to build a commercial office and innovation centre on the city-owned land at 749‑767 Douglas Street, on the corner of Douglas and Humboldt Streets. Telus is paying $8.1 million to purchase the property, along with an additional $1.1 million purchase price adjustment depending on the final proposal submitted and approved as part of the rezoning process.

The centre will house approximately 250 employees, and it'll serve as an innovation hub to showcase Telus' advanced communications and information technology. Victoria-based Aryze Developments will serve as Telus' community development partner. The team will make sure the project aligns with the shared goals of the community, city, and the company.
