The JW Marriott Edmonton Ice District & Residences is a mixed-use skyscraper being built in Edmonton, Alberta as part of the downtown Ice District. It will be a combination of a J.W. Marriott hotel in the lower section, with residential condos named Legends Private Residences in the upper section.[9] Construction began in November 2014 and is planned to be opened in January 2019.[10] The tower became the tallest building in Edmonton on 3 November 2017,[11] en route to topping out its 56th floor at its final height of 192 metres (630 ft) on 20 March 2018.[12]

The hotel will be located on the 1st through 22nd floors, and will[9] have 346-rooms, 2,300 square metres (25,000 sq ft) of conference hall space and a 930 square metres (10,000 sq ft) ballroom.[13] Located from the 23rd through 54th floors will be the Legends Private Residences, with high-end condominiums to buy or rent.[9] The building will be a total of 55 floors, at a height of 192.95 m (633.0 ft) once completed.[9][14] The tower topped out in March 2018 and reached its final design height on 8 May 2018.[15][16] Originally the hotel was going to be a Delta hotel, but Marriott closed the purchase deadline first.[17] It will be the third JW Marriott hotel in Canada, after the JW Marriott The Rosseau Muskoka Resort & Spa in the District Municipality of Muskoka in Ontario, and the JW Marriott parq in Vancouver, British Columbia.[18]
