Centennial Place is a building complex located in downtown Calgary, Alberta, Canada, which includes a 39-storey 182.6 m (599 ft) and 23-storey 165.2 m (542 ft) office tower.

The complex was named to honour Alberta's Centennial year. The complex includes an underground five-level parkade with 793 stalls. The office space covers 1,200,000 sq ft (110,000 m2). Construction of Centennial Place started in 2006 and was completed in 2010 at a cost of $320-million ($431.52 million in 2023).[1] The property's sustainability features include curtain wall technology, motion sensors on lighting controls, low-flow plumbing fixtures, a high-efficiency heating and cooling plant, and a green roof with 30% of its surface planted. In 2010, the complex was certified LEED Gold for Core and Shell Development and LEED Platinum for Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance.[2] The buildings are owned and operated Oxford Properties.

The roof of the 39-floor east tower rises to a height of 165.2 m (542 ft),[3] with the spire reaching a height of 182.6 m (599 ft). The roof of the 23-floor west tower rises to a height of 100.1 m (328 ft), with a spire that is 117.6 m (386 ft) tall.[4] As of 2020, Centennial Place I is listed by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat as the 8th tallest building in Calgary, and 52nd tallest in Canada.[3]
