By the numbers
Eau Claire at a glance
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 Eau Claire
Fun facts: Trinity Lutheran Church, built in 1910, still stands on 3 Avenue SW. The City bought Prince’s Island from the Prince family in 1947. And Peter Prince’s 1894 house was moved to Heritage Park in 1967 — its design likely came from a cottage plan published in Scientific American.
Eau Claire sits on the Bow River at the north edge of downtown, from the river and Prince’s Island south to 4 Avenue SW, and from 2 Street SW west to 9 Street SW. It takes its name from the Eau Claire and Bow River Lumber Company, whose 1886 sawmill stood here. Most homes are condos in mid- and high-rise towers, with some townhomes.
The Eau Claire Community Association serves the area but has no hall. Prince’s Island Park and the rebuilt Eau Claire Plaza are on its doorstep, the Bow River pathway runs along the river, and CTrain stations on 7 Avenue are a few blocks south.
Things to do: Prince’s Island Park, with gardens, a playground and lagoon skating in winter; crossing the Peace Bridge to Kensington; Eau Claire Plaza, with its urban beach, bouldering playground and central lawn; River Café on the island (closed in January); and the Bow River pathway.
Farmers’ market: Hillhurst Sunnyside Farmers’ Market, 1320 5 Avenue NW — Wednesdays, 3–7 pm, year-round (outdoors late May to early October, then indoors).

Questions
Eau Claire — common questions
Which schools serve Eau Claire?
A school being the closest one does not make it the designated one — catchments change year to year and can split a single street. Send me the exact address in Eau Claire and I will confirm the designated school before you write an offer.
What are homes selling for in Eau Claire?
Community-level prices move month to month, so a number published on a website is out of date almost immediately. Call 403-464-6672 and I will pull the actual recent sales in Eau Claire — what closed, at what price, and how long it took.
