A Downtown Business Association report finds that more than 1,800 residential units are under construction in the city core and another 6,000 to 7,000 units are being planned. Whether you’re taking in an event at Edmonton’s Muttart Conservatory, a show at the Winspear or enjoying dinner out of one of Downtown Edmonton’s many cutting-edge kitchens there’s always a way to tap into the buzz. “ On the weekend, we might head out to the farmers market, even if we don’t buy anything we go to talk to people. It’s a great way to feel connected to the spirit of the city. It helps me with work, experiencing it all the time and building on that helps us in our business. It’s the people — that’s what Edmonton is.” Downtown Resident & Marketing Executive, Chris Henderson 5 s 21 Hwy 21 GrG r t o S aat Rd t Rd 109 109 St 111111 St t 97 9 S 7 t St St S 24 124 St 1 42 142 St 1 104104 St ICE District JasperJasper Ave St 63 163 St 1 CENTRAL WhyteWhyte AvAvee G 87 AvAvee WhiWhitemudtemud Dr Walking through the hustle and bustle of 104 street past local spots like Rostizado and Mercer’s Tavern in the historic Mercer Warehouse, you round the corner onto 104 Avenue and are overcome by the fluid form of the ICE District’s beating heart; Rogers Place.

However, a few long-lost hundred year old farmhouses can still be found dotted in the neighbourhood. In the last 20 years, largely because of the neighbourhood’s proximity to Edmonton’s downtown, many of the original homes have been replaced by larger, two-storey homes and infills. “I loved living in Parkview,” said Lauren Rodych-Eberle. She resided in Parkview with her husband and former Oilers forward Jordan Eberle from 2013-2016. “Living in such close proximity to so many schools was wonderful for my music classes. I also used the ravine trails on the regular, through all the seasons.” Key Features Rebel Food & Drink Andy’s Valleyview IGA Mackenzie Ravine 11 s 21 Hwy 21 GrG r t o S aat Rd t Rd 109 109 St 111111 St t 97 9 S 7 t St St S 24 124 St 1 42 142 St 1 104104 St Crestwood JasperJasper Ave St 63 163 St 1 WESTEND WhyteWhyte AvAvee G 87 AvAvee WhiWhitemudtemud Dr Situated in west Edmonton, the charming family neighbourhood of Crestwood features schools, shops, the River Valley, ravines and it’s a short bike ride, drive or leisurely stroll to the Edmonton Valley Zoo.
