Central District
Engagement has Concluded
District Planning is a multi-year project to build The City Plan’s 15-minute districts—small towns in our big city— where people can meet many of their daily needs locally.
The Central District is located in the central area of the city and is one of fifteen districts in Edmonton’s District Network as outlined in The City Plan. Adjacent districts include the Northwest, 118 Avenue and Jasper Place Districts. Across the North Saskatchewan river to the south is the Scona District (see Figure 6.1: Citywide Context). Central District includes the following neighbourhoods: Boyle Street, Central McDougall, Dovercourt, Downtown, Glenora, Inglewood, McCauley, North Glenora, Oliver, Prince Charles, Prince Rupert, Queen Mary Park, Riverdale, Rossdale, Sherbrooke, Westmount and Woodcroft.
Check out the draft District General Policy, the draft Central District Plan and Area Plans Proposed to be Repealed. You have from August 23 until the end of November to share your input.
