Downtown West Area Redevelopment Plan
Overview
In 2013, The City of Calgary began public engagement for work on a draft Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP) for the west end of downtown, referred to as Downtown West. The study area is roughly located between 8 Street S.W. and 14 Street S.W., bordered by the Canadian Pacific Railway tracks to the south and the Bow River to the north. Due to competing timelines of various projects being completed by The City and external parties that could impact the Downtown West neighbourhood, The City will focus on the results of these projects before continuing work on the Downtown West ARP.
The purpose of the planning study is to develop policy to ensure development in this area supports the goals of Calgary's Municipal Development Plan and is in alignment with the Greater Downtown Plan, as well as other plans and guidelines.
Please note the location of the proposed CalgaryNEXT project in the West Village falls outside of the study area for this project. The Downtown West planning process is unrelated to the CalgaryNEXT proposal. Please refer to the FAQ tab on this page for more information.
