Radisson Heights Community Information

Albert Park/Radisson Heights is a residential neighborhood in the south-east quadrant of Calgary, Alberta. It is bounded to the west by the Bow River and Deerfoot Trail, to the north by Memorial Drive and to the south by International Avenue. The community of Forest Lawn lies to the east.

This community, established in 1910, enjoys ample open space, is well provided with public and separate schools, has good access to shopping and city-wide transportation routes, and has views of the Bow River Valley, the Downtown and the Canadian Rockies.

However, like many communities in the inner city, it suffers from a number of problems such as shortcutting of nonlocal traffic, residential infill development that is insensitive to the block or the community at large. The community has an area redevelopment plan in place.

Albert Park and Radisson Heights are close to Downtown Calgary. Inglewood, Fort Calgary Historic Park and the Calgary Zoo, are just moments away. The Max Bell Centre (ice hockey arena) is located immediately west of Radisson Heights.

This neighborhood is ervices by Radisson Park Elementary, Albert Park Elementary, Sir Wilfrid Laurier Junior High, Holy Family School, and Bishop Kidd schools.
