Garrison Woods Community Information
Garrison Woods was originally established as a Calgary community in 1998 and was built in an area well-known for its amenities and resources, superb quality of life, and opportunity in the city’s temperate climate. The vast majority of developments within the borders of the neighborhood was completed in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Now Garrison Woods boasts a small collection of some 1,600 townhouses, single-family detached homes, apartment buildings, and semi-detached homes. The neighborhood is pedestrian-oriented featuring several green spaces and parks within close proximity as well as being only a 7-minute distance away from downtown Calgary. The neighborhood of Garrison Woods was built on land formerly occupied by the Canadian military and it’s this military theme that acts as the thread that ties the community together – in its architecture, street names and design, and park monuments.
