Where is Whitehorn? In Calgary, up in the northeast, near the airport. You will find it on the north side of of 32 Avenue, south of McKnight Blvd, east of 36th Street and west of 52 Street NE. Castleridge is to the north, Temple to the east and Rundle to the south. The C-Train is on the west along with the Horizon commercial area.
Look at the number 143 on the map above. This community lies immediately east of the White horn LRT station, and is served by convenient roads that take you to the 16th Ave NE, Deerfoot Trail and Stoney Trail freeways.
Here you'll also find the Community Association, where a variety of community needs are met. Programs like scouts and womens' associations, and recreational activities including tennis courts, dancing, sports and crafts entertain those who visit.
Nearly 12,000 people live out here. You can be one of them.
Like the other communities (Temple, Rundle and Pineridge) that make up "The Properties", this one was built in the 1970's. Three schools are right in the community, as is the leisure centre, childcare, playgrounds and shopping. Speaking of shopping - two malls, Marlborough and Sunridge, are not too far away. The Peter Lougheed Hospital is just to the west across 36th Street, with one of the malls and a Real Canadian Superstore right in its vicinity. A close proximity to anemities like these makes a place quite desirable to live.
This established part of Calgary has interconnected green areas with stately mature trees, quiet streets and a great view of downtown and the Rocky Mountains. The whole neighbourhood is quite convenient for residents and visitors alike.
What schools are there? The little ones, kindergarten to grade 6, can go to Colonel J Fred Scott School or Chief Justice Milvain School, then Annie Gale Junior High School and then Lester B. Pearson High School, which is southeast on 52nd Street. Catholic kids can choose from St Wilfrid School up to grade 6, Father Mollen or St Martha schools for kindergarten to grade 9 and then Bishop McNally High School which is northeast on 52nd Street.
On the whole, White horn provides exceptional real estate value. Go back from Whitehorn to the
