Queen Alexandra

In the northern realm of Queen Alexandra, history intertwines with the original Town of Strathcona, dating back to its 1899 incorporation. Rapid urbanization ensued after its amalgamation into Edmonton in 1912, particularly northward from University Avenue to Whyte Avenue. Here, a vibrant mix of single-detached homes and burgeoning commercial districts emerged, setting the stage for its diverse urban fabric. Today, Queen Alexandra pulsates with vitality, anchored by Whyte Avenue’s bustling array of shops, eateries, and cultural hubs. Amidst its dynamic landscape lie educational institutions, green spaces, and a tapestry of residential offerings, evolving steadily with time. Named after Queen Alexandra herself, the neighbourhood stands as a testament to its regal namesake, embodying a rich tapestry of community spirit and historical legacy.
