GoldBar

Nestled in Edmonton’s vibrant eastern expanse, Gold Bar stands as a charming neighborhood bordered by the majestic River Valley to the north and 50th Street to the west. Its development flourished primarily in the 1950s, featuring predominantly single-detached houses with a sprinkling of row housing units along its southern edge. Residents of Gold Bar enjoy breathtaking vistas of Goldstick Park, Gold Bar Ravine, and the serene river valley, offering a picturesque backdrop for everyday life.
The neighborhood’s street layout, a blend of crescents and a modified grid pattern, fosters a cozy community atmosphere while ensuring convenient navigation. Locals benefit from a range of businesses along 50th Street and 101 Avenue, supplemented by additional retail and service offerings at nearby Capilano Mall. Tracing its roots to the historic “Gold Bar Farm,” the neighborhood’s name evokes memories of the gold prospectors who once roamed along the North Saskatchewan River. Adjacent Goldstick Park pays homage to Rabbi Hyman Goldstick, a revered figure in Edmonton’s history and the city’s first Rabbi.
