[ Other Neighbourhoods | NE Neighbourhoods Map ]

These communities lie between 48th Ave (McKnight) and 64th Ave and NE and east of 36th Street. These communities were developed in the 1980s and 1990s. The community is primarily low density residential with a mix of single family homes and townhomes. Castleridge is the neighbourhood between 36nd Street and Falconridge Blvd NE and all the streets begin with "Castle." Falconridge is the neighbourhood between 52nd Street and 68th Street and all the streets begin with "Fal." The area is close to the airport, accessed via McKnight Blvd, but also lies underneath the secondary east-west runway often used for landings.

The city-owned McCall Lake golf course is west on 32nd Avenue, just before the Deerfoot Trail.
