Lansdowne

In the heart of Edmonton lies Lansdowne, a charming neighborhood whose roots trace back to its annexation by the city in 1960. Throughout the vibrant 1960s, residential development flourished, painting the landscape with single-detached homes nestled on generous lots. Embraced by the tranquil embrace of Whitemud Creek Ravine to the west and south, and the sprawling University of Alberta Farm to the north and northeast, Lansdowne boasts natural serenity and ample recreational spaces. Dotted with apartment buildings on its southeastern and northeastern corners, Lansdowne’s focal point is a bustling educational and recreational hub, where the neighborhood’s lively bus route conveniently loops around. Pedestrians and cyclists delight in traversing Lansdowne’s pathways and linear pipeline right-of-way, fostering a sense of community connectivity and vibrancy. Residents relish the convenience of the Lansdowne Shopping Centre’s array of businesses, while Southgate Mall offers additional delights, completing Lansdowne’s tapestry of modern living with a nod to its historical namesake, the esteemed Earl of Lansdowne, former Governor General of Canada from 1883 to 1888.
