If you are a small business owner or community resident please do not hesitate to have us post or advertise for you on this page!!! No community offers everything to every person, but West Hillhurst comes pretty darn close. Conveniently located along the north bank of the Bow River, West Hillhurst residents have access to the Bow River system of parks and pathways. It’s also close to both
downtown and the trendy coffee shops and pubs in nearby Kensington. Yet, the community is far enough away from both places to avoid some common pitfalls: it’s quiet, safe, close enough to enjoy the amenities of the core, but far enough away to avoid any rabble-rousing-related racket. In this respect, West Hillhurst has the best of both worlds. For Jim Eby, president of the West Hillhurst Community Association, that’s precisely why he moved to the area seven years ago with his wife and three children, ages seven, eight and 10.
“It came down to improving the quality of life for my family,” says Eby. “We used to live way up in the northeast, but in Calgary a lot of the attractions — things like the zoo, Edworthy Park and the Science Centre — are close to downtown. Now, I spend less time commuting and more time with my family doing fun stuff.”
