Did You Know

What Makes Elbow Park Special

A few things that set Elbow Park apart from every other community in Calgary.

🏗️
Planned by Developer Freddy Lowes
Elbow Park was deliberately created by real estate developer Freddy Lowes after the city was annexed in 1907 — he envisioned an exclusive riverside suburb with spacious lots and heritage homes along the Elbow River.
🏛️
Oldest Community Association in Calgary
The Elbow Park Residents' Association, formed in 1930, is the oldest continuously operating community association in the entire City of Calgary.
🌳
Homesteaded Since 1875
The land comprising modern Elbow Park was first homesteaded by William Scollen in 1875 and James Owens in 1882 — some of Calgary's earliest recorded private landowners.
🐾
Sandy Beach Off-Leash Park
Sandy Beach off-leash park sits directly on the Elbow River at the community's edge — one of Calgary's most beloved off-leash areas, walkable from virtually every home in the neighbourhood.
