Life in Parkdale
Parkdale sits along the north bank of the Bow River, between 28 Street NW and Shaganappi Trail, below the Foothills Medical Centre and 16 Avenue. Calgary annexed the land in 1910, but homebuilding didn’t start until 1948, when it grew as a post-war suburb. In the 1980s residents successfully fought a proposed six-lane road along the river, and the Bow River pathway runs there instead.
About 28% of homes were built before 1961, and nearly a quarter have gone up since 2011, so original bungalows sit beside new infills, duplexes and low-rise condos. The Foothills Medical Centre and Alberta Children’s Hospital are just north, the University of Calgary is close, and downtown is a short drive east.
Who Tends to Love It Here
Parkdale tends to suit hospital and university staff who want to walk to work, runners and cyclists who want the river pathway out the door, and buyers looking for a new infill close to downtown.
Nearby: West Hillhurst and Montgomery.

Parkdale Real Estate Market
The benchmark prices below are CREB®’s own community-level figures for Parkdale wherever CREB® publishes one; any home type without enough sales this month uses the City Centre district instead, and months of supply and the sales-to-new-listings ratio are district figures. These are CREB®’s published figures, not my estimates. If you want to know what homes on a particular street have actually sold for, ask me and I’ll pull the recent sales.

Frequently Asked Questions About Parkdale
Have a question that isn’t here? Ask me and I’ll get back to you, usually the same day.
How close is Parkdale to the Foothills hospital?
Very close. The Foothills Medical Centre sits right above the community, and many residents walk to work there.
What do homes in Parkdale cost?
CREB®’s October 2026 benchmarks are $1,252,800 for detached homes (Parkdale) and $961,000 for semi-detached homes (City Centre district). Where CREB® doesn’t publish a Parkdale-only figure, I’ve used the district benchmark. New infills often sell above that, so ask me for recent sales.
Is Parkdale in a flood zone?
Homes close to the Bow River may be. Check the address on the City of Calgary’s flood maps before you buy, and ask about past flooding.
Where is Parkdale?
In northwest Calgary, bounded by the Foothills Medical Centre and 16 Avenue NW to the north, 28 Street NW to the east, the Bow River to the south and Shaganappi Trail to the west.
Is it a buyer’s or seller’s market in Parkdale?
In October 2026, detached homes in the City Centre district had 3.52 months of supply and a 61.90% sales-to-new-listings ratio (CREB®). As a rough guide, under about 3 months of supply favours sellers, 3 to 4 months is balanced, and over about 4 months starts to favour buyers.
