About MNP Tower
The MNP Tower was originally part of a bigger building project. This project was created by Oxford Properties. It included several other important buildings in downtown Edmonton. These buildings are the Oxford Tower, the Edmonton City Centre mall, the TD Tower, and the Delta Edmonton Centre Suite Hotel.
Connecting Edmonton's Buildings
All these buildings are connected by the Edmonton Pedway system. This is a network of walkways that lets people move between buildings without going outside. The MNP Tower and its connected buildings also link up to Edmonton's LRT (Light Rail Transit) system. This makes it easy for people to travel to and from the tower.
An Award-Winning Building
In 2016, the MNP Tower received a special award. It was named "The Outstanding Building of the Year" by the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) in Edmonton. This award shows that the MNP Tower is a well-managed and high-quality building.
