Neighbourhood Guide
East Village
City Centre, Calgary
The East Village is Calgary at its most dynamic and creative, an exciting inner city neighbourhood and destination where Calgary’s most inspiring people, events and opportunities are concentrated in a few walkable, bikeable and well-connected streets.
Located east of downtown along the banks of the Bow River, East Village has transformed from an industrial area into a thriving community that blends modern living with rich history.
Once a neglected area, East Village has undergone a complete transformation into a modern, urban community that combines cutting-edge architecture, vibrant public spaces, and an unbeatable location.
The neighbourhood is a model of urban revitalization, blending Calgary’s rich history with innovative design and sustainable living. It’s a neighborhood where modern condo living meets cultural landmarks like the National Music Centre and the Calgary Central Library, creating a vibrant environment for people who want to live in the heart of Calgary’s urban renaissance.
Originally a bustling hub due to its proximity to the Bow River and the Canadian Pacific Railway, the area fell into decline in the mid-20th century. By the 1980s, East Village was largely abandoned, with derelict buildings and vacant lots defining the landscape.
However, in the early 2000s, the Calgary Municipal Land Corporation (CMLC) embarked on a large-scale redevelopment project to revitalize East Village. This ambitious transformation has turned East Village into one of Calgary’s most vibrant neighborhoods, with over $2.75 billion invested in new infrastructure, residential developments, and public spaces. Today, East Village is one of Calgary’s most desirable and forward-thinking communities.
