Edmonton Exhibition Lands development continues
December 9, 2025

The City of Edmonton is moving forward with the next phases of the Edmonton Exhibition Lands development. In November, utility servicing work began for the first residential parcels. Neighbourhood-level construction on the initial residential units is anticipated to start in 2026, with full construction of the first units expected to finish in early 2027.

Construction has begun for the new Edmonton Urban Farm, located near 73 Street at Borden Park Road NW. The farm is anticipated to open in 2026.
The City has also begun on-site work prior to demolishing structures on the Edmonton Spectrum property, formerly known as the Northlands Park Racetrack & Casino.

The demolition project began in fall 2025 and is scheduled for completion in spring 2026. The work does not pose a health or safety risk to residents, as all hazards are being appropriately managed. Once complete, this demolition will open additional land for further residential parcels to be prepared and sold, supporting the continued eastward and northward progression of the Exhibition Lands development. Please visit edmonton.ca/SpectrumDemolition to learn more about the project.

“We’re really excited for these significant milestones in the Exhibition Lands development,” said Lovey Grewal, Project Lead, Edmonton Exhibition Lands, Real Estate Branch. “Once the demolition project is complete, that will open the door for our team to prepare the site for eventual residential development. This site will complement our current work in the southwest of the area, and we look forward to the first residential units coming onto the market in the next few years.”

Please visit ExhibitionLands.ca for more information on the Edmonton Exhibition Lands development, a unique infill opportunity for new residential development only minutes from downtown. The City will continue to work with private development partners and follow a market-driven approach to build out the full Exhibition Lands area.

"and the green space of Bonanza Park will likely see expansion"

I gotta say, Bonanza Park has a little more spunk than Borden Park.

Man, seeing this torn down tugs at the nostalgic part of me.

I spent lots of Klondike Days there and went to the casino and horses races there numerous times.

Onward and upward!
