While a little out of the way, we think that a visit up to Calgary's New North is worth the trip. Let's take a look at Evanston, one of the shiny glittering examples of the exciting developments happening up here. The quiet streets are filled with different choices of the best in modern housing, luxurious condos, estates, and single-family homes, all centered around a community that is designed to be contemporary and convenient.
Even if you've never heard of it before, it's time you explore some of the finer points of this community, a secret that's getting out and around the city. Here is what Evanston has to offer you. Evanston is one of the hottest developing parts of Calgary. The north end is already proposed to fix the problem of Calgary's growing population.
The city council recently announced a new development; Glacier Ridge, which will encompass four new communities and house 58,000 new people, just north of Evanston. That means the services and amenities in Evanston will soon become a major hub for the area as Calgary's exciting future continues and comes to life. But for now, the community still has plenty of attraction for Calgarians.
With over 10,000 people already choosing to live in Evanston, we've seen incredibly rapid growth happening here. The community doubled in size in just three years to its current population, take into account all the construction yet to happen onsite and we foresee Evanston being one of the hottest destinations in Calgary's north.

Evanston is designed for families with a huge number of the population choosing the home because it's an affordable investment in their future. With incomes being higher than elsewhere in Calgary, families can take advantage of the larger homes and spacious lots.

Creekside Shopping is another little plaza designed to meet your everyday needs, while these are worth mentioning, we can't help but draw your attention to the supermassive CrossIron Mills, which has become the hub of many of the communities in the north, as well as a popular destination for Calgarians all over the city.
