Northeast Edmonton

Highlands, Edmonton

Highlands, annexed to the city in 1912, was named in a contest offering a $50 prize. In 1911, real estate developers McGrath and Holgate built their mansions on Ada Boulevard (which was named after McGrath's wife). Other large, well-appointed houses were built nearby, where residents enjoy a spectacular view of the North Saskatchewan River Valley. More modest housing is located further from the valley.
