Rossdale

One of Edmonton's oldest neighbourhoods, in 1802 Rossdale featured two fur trading forts andwas a key supply point during the Klondike Gold Rush. It was the original home of the exhibition grounds (moved in 1911), and the site of a brewery, ice house, lumber yard, power plant, and coalmine. Today, much of the land here is devoted to recreational space, and the area features many homes between 50 and 75 years old. Over 85 percent of Rossdale households consist of one ormore adults without children.
