Neighborhood Profile: Callaghan

Callaghan is one of the 15 neighbourhoods that make up the Heritage Valley area in southwest Edmonton. The neighbourhood’s residential areas were fully built out by 2011. The neighbourhood is bounded on the north and west by James Mowatt Trail, the south by 30th Avenue, and the east by the Blackmud Creek Ravine.

Calgary Trail, Gateway Boulevard, Ellerslie Road, Anthony Henday Drive, and Highway 2 are all within a short distance, providing accessibility to amenities in the rest of the city, such as South Edmonton Common, Rabbit Hill Snow Resort, and the Edmonton International Airport. The future Heritage Valley Town Centre is located just west of the neighbourhood, and will be the social and economic heart of Heritage Valley.
