Haskayne is a Brookfield Residential community on the far north-west edge of Calgary, west of Rocky Ridge and adjacent to Haskayne Legacy Park, a large regional park on the Bow River. It is an early-phase community in a setting most Calgary communities cannot offer.
The park is the point. Haskayne Legacy Park is one of the largest park spaces in the city, and the community is planned to connect directly into it, which gives residents trail access that will not change as the surrounding land develops.
As with any edge-of-city community, the practical costs are distance and time. Retail, schools and recreation are in the established north-west communities to the east, and the peak commute downtown is long.
Commute note: Approximate drive to downtown Calgary via the Trans-Canada Highway or Stoney Trail. Off-peak roughly 30 minutes, peak roughly 40 minutes.
