Scenic Acres
Established: 1981
Scenic Acres is located in the northwest sector of the city south of Crowchild
Trail, west of Nose Hill Drive N.W., east of Stoney Trail and approximately
14 kilometres northwest of the city centre. The area was annexed in several
stages, beginning in the early 1960s. In 1979 another 279 hectares (690 acres)
was annexed, and in 1981, a further annexation took place, which included the
balance of the community. The gently sloping topography provides for interesting
views in a southwesterly direction towards the mountains.
Development in Scenic Acres has just recently finished with the predominant
land use being residential, mostly single family detached housing with 5 medium
to high priced condominium complexes including a +55 neighbourhood.
Very close by, there is newer YMCA, a huge regional shopping at Crowfoot Centre,
a pathway system incorporating regional parks, tot lots, and the city's bike
path system. Residents are within close proximity to the University, The Calgary
Foothills General Hospital, SAIT and McMahon Stadium with easy access to Mount
Royal College.
