DOWNTOWN: A Place to call home
a cumulative review of residential development in downtown Edmonton
OVERVIEW & OBJECTIVES
Three major features contribute to a strong and
vibrant Downtown: (i) many skilled and diverse
residents, (ii) the presence of local amenities and
businesses, and (iii) continued innovation and
growth. Together, these components stoke the fire

Edmontonians. Our Downtown increasingly features
all three of these key components, forecasting

of this development, as well as the future potential
for residential development in the Downtown core.
