Woodcroft

Woodcroft, bordered by major thoroughfares like 111th and 118th Avenues, 142nd Street, and Groat Road, stands out as a mature neighborhood where more than half of the land serves non-residential purposes. The residential section, mainly north of 113th Avenue, boasts diverse housing styles, primarily constructed in the 1950s, with ongoing reinvestment and redevelopment over the years. Single-detached homes dominate the neighborhood’s architectural landscape, representing over three-quarters of residential structures and a significant portion of dwelling units. Anchored by the historic Westmount Shopping Centre, the community also embraces Coronation Park, featuring amenities like the Peter Hemingway swimming pool and the Telus World of Science facility. Woodcroft’s name, dating back to 1907, reflects its verdant character, evoking the wooded ambiance that defines its essence.
