# Calgary/Northeast

Northeast Calgary is a district in Calgary. The Northeast is full of variety: upstart breweries spicing up faceless warehouses, a Ukrainian Orthodox cathedral standing beside new concrete and glass condos, a shining mosque dome overlooking the airport, and cookie-cutter housing and prefab concrete spreading as far as the eye can see.

## Understand

Close to downtown, the neighbourhoods of Bridgeland and Crescent Heights, are older, more historic, more bougie, and are very walkable by Calgary standards. Here is where you hear stories of the early immigrants and witness a new wave of gentrification. It's the home of St. Vladimir's, many seniors' residences, the Italian supermarket, and trendy eateries and coffeeshops where the staff invariably wear a denim apron. The Bow River is close by with opportunities for recreation and plenty of scenic vistas for strolls and cycling, and St. George's Island park provides a striking example of contemporary art and architecture intersecting with nature.
Further away from downtown is a much younger city perhaps best symbolized by Calgary's mayor elected in 2010 (and re-elected in 2013, and 2016), Naheed Nenshi. An Ismaili Muslim and the son of immigrants from Tanzania of Indian heritage, the Northeast is his home. Many Calgarians here have a similar story of coming from other countries, weaving their many cultures and languages into the city. Physically, this part of the Northeast is generic suburban sprawl punctuated by massive big-box stores, albeit with the twist of more businesses catering to many different diaspora and immigrant communities. Bring a car.
The Calgary International Airport is also located in the Northeast.

## Get in
### By plane

* 51.113889-114.0202781 Calgary International Airport (YYC) (take Airport Trail (exit 266) from Deerfoot Trail (Hwy 2)), ☏ +1 403-735-1234. The domestic terminal has three lettered concourses (A,B,and C), which are also labelled as meeting places, easy points of reference. The international terminal was completed in 2016 and has Concourse D for international flights (non-US destinations) and Concourse E for US bound flights. The airport is well-served by Canadian and international carriers. The airport has "White Hat Volunteers" dressed in white cowboy hats and red vests who are quite friendly and more than happy to direct you and answer questions.

Deerfoot Trail (Highway 2), is the main north-south freeway through Calgary, and during off-peak times is the best way from Southeast Calgary and Southwest Calgary. Memorial Drive provides access to the City Centre from Deerfoot Trail, with Edmonton Trail and Centre Street serve as good alternative routes.

An urban revitalization area northeast of the downtown.

The area is expected to be a family oriented Pearl District (see Portland, Oregon) and the initial phases are already done. The area includes posh shops, chic apartments, and beautiful lofts, while maintaining the old charm of the distinct houses. The area is undergoing massive gentrification due to its proximity to downtown and the now cleaned up East Village. It is a great area to walk through for those interested in architecture and planning. The far eastern end of Bridgeland connects with the Calgary Zoo and Telus Spark Science Centre. Tom Campbell's Hill is an excellent viewpoint of downtown. (updated Apr 2019)
