We want to honour this beautiful building that has such a rich history in our town and to our community. Our goal with Signal Hill is to give new life to each floor while creating space for businesses with old values of great handmade quality and customer service. When you come into the space, we want you to have an experience—through the work done by our hands.

Cedar & Vine

At Cedar & Vine, we are turning back the dial. We’re slowing things down to reconsider what we need. While most brands design for the masses by guessing what people will like, we’re creating enduring pieces that you’ll build a lifelong relationship with—and then we make each one by hand just for you. We focus on foundational, timeless styles that you’ll reach for day after day and season after season. For us, it’s about more than creating something beautiful to wear—it’s a reflection of our values and a source of pride.

None of us fit neatly into one size from head-to-toe, so we offer fit customization at no extra charge. We’ll help you with base size selection and taking your own measurements, then create a personalized digital pattern that reflects your preferences. Your piece is tailored by our talented team of seamstresses and your pattern is saved for future orders, so it’s ready and waiting as you grow your collection. By hand making garments that are custom fit just for you, our goal is to inspire a deeper connection to your clothing. We believe when you choose to invest in quality pieces and feel close to the people who make them, you’ll cherish them for longer.

Michael’s Coffee Shop and Bakery

When you come to Michael’s Coffee Shop and Bakery, you aren’t buying a cinnamon bun that comes premade. His team arrives at six in the morning to start making those buns from scratch for you. There is a special handmade element to everything that goes on behind that counter.

I think one thing that really ties us together as completely different businesses is the love and hand-crafted approach behind what we do. To bring you joy through our work—that is the common thread I see between us and one of the reasons that we get along so well. This is the type of people we want to surround and align ourselves with when creating spaces in the rest of the building. Ultimately, we want Signal Hill to be a hub of local businesses with the common goal of serving our community and creating an experience for those who enter our doors.

Come and experience Signal Hill again and again

So, whether it is through buying a piece of handmade clothing that adds joy and value to your life. Whether it is through the joy of taking a moment to connect with a friend over a latte or enjoying the simple pleasure of a delicious cinnamon bun handmade by Michael and his team, we hope that Signal Hill can be a happy place for you.

We want to send a massive thank you to each one who has come out already to support our businesses and we hope we can continue to serve you.
