Elbow Park

As the name implies Elbow Park is situated along the Elbow River, 3 kilometres south of the Downtown. It is believed that a whisky trading fort, located within the area of Elbow Park, actually preceded Fort Calgary. The community was annexed to the City in 1907 and was developed after 1910. Many of the original homes are still in good condition and the primary concern of the Elbow Park Resident's Association is to preserve the historic character of the neighbourhood. In terms of recreation opportunities, Elbow Park is located within close proximity to River Park, Stanley Park, and the pathway.

Elbow Park is a residential neighbourhood in the southwest quadrant of Calgary, Alberta. It is one of the oldest and wealthiest communities in the city. It is bordered to the south and east by Elbow River, to the east by Elbow Drive, to the north by Council Way and to the west by 14 Street W. Elbow Park was annexed to the City of Calgary in 1907 and developed after 1910, when it was established as a neighbourhood. River Park and Stanley Park, developed in the Elbow River valley, border the community.
