Homes in Forest Lawn

Forest Lawn delivers an authentic, exceptionally connected, and practical urban lifestyle that effortlessly balances deep historic roots with major city-backed modernization frameworks.

• The International Avenue Culinary & Cultural Mecca: The absolute heartbeat of daily life is International Avenue (17th Avenue SE). This thriving business revitalization zone is Calgary's premier multicultural destination. Residents enjoy walking access to a spectacular selection of authentic global restaurants, diverse ethnic supermarkets, artisan bakeries, and local boutique shops that rival any major culinary district in Canada.
• Massive Lot Profiles & Premier Zoning Versatility: Built during an era that prioritized expansive personal space, properties here boast generous frontages and deep setbacks. Thanks to traditional rear-lane configurations and flexible City of Calgary zoning rules, the neighbourhood is a hotspot for character home updates, backyard secondary suites, and high-yielding multi-family infill developments (like contemporary duplexes and 8-plexes).
• The Massive New Forest Lawn Civic Centre Hub: Major civic investment is actively transforming the community fabric. The City of Calgary is executing the multi-phase Forest Lawn Civic Centre Master Plan, a sprawling 26-acre multi-service hub. This massive community space will feature state-of-the-art indoor and outdoor recreational fields, an arts and culture center, an updated fire station, a skate park, and dedicated outdoor spaces for cultural gatherings.
• Instant Escape to Elliston Park & Global Fest: Outdoor recreation is right down the road. The community sits just moments from Elliston Park, a beautiful regional green space anchored by a massive stormwater lake, off-leash dog zones, and creative playgrounds. It famously serves as the annual host site for GlobalFest, Calgary’s world-renowned international fireworks festival.
• Effortless Commuting & MAX Purple BRT Infrastructure: You can completely eliminate heavy suburban vehicle gridlock from this location. Backed by the MAX Purple Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) dedicated transit line rolling directly down 17th Avenue SE, residents enjoy rapid, direct transit or driving paths into the downtown commercial core in under 12 minutes, alongside immediate access to Deerfoot Trail and Stoney Trail.
