Bridgeland

Bridgeland–Riverside grew up around the bridges connecting the north bank of the Bow to downtown. Waves of German, Ukrainian and Italian immigrants shaped the community in the early 1900s, and you can still feel that heritage at its long-standing bakeries and delis.

What it’s like to live here

First Avenue NE is a compact main street of cafés, restaurants and grocers. Tom Campbell’s Hill offers one of the best skyline views in Calgary, and Murdoch Park is the community’s back yard for festivals, markets and winter skating.

Real estate snapshot

The redevelopment of the former General Hospital lands added modern condos and townhomes beside older bungalows and character homes. Views of downtown and the river are a big part of value here.
