 Calder’s History

Early Calder was located on Hudson’s Bay Company reserve land. After the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway connected with Edmonton in 1909, Hugh Alfred Calder, an Edmonton real estate entrepreneur, farmer, alderman, and the neighbourhood’s namesake, first began to subdivide the area. In July 1910, the Village of Calder was established.

Many Grand Trunk employees settled in Calder, and the village became known as a railroad
colony. In 1917, Calder was annexed by the CIty of Edmonton. Soon after, a streetcar line was extended to the area via 124 Street, but the area did not grow substantially until after 1945. Development resumed at a rapid pace during Edmonton’s post-war boom years.

As a result of this extended period of development, there’s a wide variety of architectural styles in Calder. Generally, newer structures are located in the northern portion of the neighbourhood and older structures are located to the south near the Calder Railway Yards.
