Population and dwelling counts: City of Calgary civic census, 2019 — the most recent civic census published. Current properties: the City’s property assessment roll. That is the up-to-date count, but it counts titles rather than households — each condominium unit is its own title, while a rental apartment building is a single title however many suites it holds. In newer, mostly-owned communities the two numbers track closely; in older communities with rental blocks the roll sits below the census count for that reason. Sector: City of Calgary community district boundaries.

The community

About Downtown East Village

Fun facts: the Central Library was built right over a working CTrain line — the first time in Calgary an active train line was enclosed and used as a building’s foundation. Its final steel beam is a time capsule signed by about 700 people. On St. Patrick’s Island next door, the “Bloom” sculpture stands about 23 m tall, made from old street lights, with an osprey nest platform on top. And the footbridge to the island is nicknamed the “Skipping Stone” bridge for its shape.

East Village sits in the southeast corner of downtown, from the Bow River and Confluence Way south to 9 Avenue SE, and from 3 Street SE east to 6 Street SE. Most homes are condos, many built in the last 15 years. The City Hall/Bow Valley College CTrain station is on its west edge.

The East Village Neighbourhood Association serves the area but has no hall. There’s a fenced off-leash dog area, a pickleball court and a community garden, and the river pathways run along the north side.

Things to do: the Central Library; Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre; St. Patrick’s Island Park next door; walking or biking the RiverWalk; the cafés and rooftop patio at the Simmons Building; and The Confluence Historic Site (formerly Fort Calgary) next door, with more galleries on the way.

Farmers’ market: Bridgeland-Riverside Farmers’ Market, 917 Centre Avenue NE — Thursdays, 3:30–7:30 pm, mid-June to early October. Year-round, the closest is Crossroads Market (1235 26 Avenue SE), about 2 km away.
