Lake
Midnapore
Located
in Calgary's SE |
| This community lies
south of Fish Creek Park, and on the east side of Macleod Trail. Midnapore
is attractive for its community-owned artificial lake. This community is
new, having been built since 1980. The more expensive homes are closer
to the lake (and also pay a higher community fee). New office buildings
and the extension of the south LRT are expected to reduce commuting time
for residents. The community is rapidly becoming a shopper's paradise
with many big box stores attracted to the 25,000 area residents in the
"young family" demographic.
|
|
| Schools: |
|
These communities are new and can provide only elementary schools for
both boards. High School students must commute to schools north of Fish
Creek, though a major High School facility is in the planning stages for
the area.

The small Midnapore Mall provides most shopping amenities, and the west
side of Macleod Trail provides a number of "category killer"
big box stores to meet almost every need. The upscale Avenida mall is
just north of Fish Creek, and Southcentre, the largest mall in the area
is just north of Anderson Rd.

|
| Recreation: |
|
Most of the recreation is around Fish Creek Park, with its recreational
pathways that link tot he Bow River pathway system to the east. There is
an indoor pool in Canyon Meadows, and two wave pools, the Southland
Leisure Centre to the north, and the Family Leisure Centre to the east.
Shawnee Slopes golf course is in the middle of the community. The Famous
Players Coliseum movie theatres are right on Macleod Trail,
