Nature in the heart of the city

Description

Welcome to the west end of Calgary's downtown core! With easy access to the Bow River, glorious parks and pathways, trendy shops and eateries, it is little wonder that this is a desirable place to live. The majestic 10th Street Bridge is one of the most recognizable landmarks in this part of downtown and it features prominently in the background of this photo celebrating the coming of fall. Across the bridge to the north, the Kensington area is alive with activity throughout the week and offers patrons a myriad of pleasantries to partake of. Running east and west from the bridge is the extensive Bow River pathway, which fitness and nature enthusiasts alike flock to. The pathway passes through Prince’s Island Park to the east and Edworthy Park to the west and features a variety of foliage, terrain and scenic stopping points. Calgary’s downtown is not far from the south end of the bridge and commuters from the north rely on the bridge for direct and timely access to the core. For residents who live in the vicinity of 10th Street SW, the area provides spectacular landscapes, stunning views, and simple living in the heart of Calgary’s west end – it’s without a doubt a great place to call home!
