They're both nice buildings. Scona Gardens is in the heart of Old Strathcona, so walking distance to artsy stores, bars etc. Century Park is walking distance to the LRT, which will take you right down town and has supermarkets, doctors, restaurants etc. nearby.

A lot will depend on where your company is located, and whether you'll be driving. If you're working downtown, the LRT is a great option, but if you want to be close to the nightlife, Scona Gardens may be the better choice.

Scona gardens is the closest. You could probably walk to the bridge from Scona Gardens.
