Located on 80 acres in northeast Calgary, the site offers easy access to more than 900,000 residents.
A collection of restaurants and patios line the central courtyard.
The retail development is built around a central pedestrian mall with water features and landscape elements.
Taking cues from places like Denver and Chicago, Deerfoot City moves the shopping experience outside, a unique offering in suburban Calgary.
The project offers a creative and vibrant social experience with an urban feel that differentiates it from traditional enclosed malls.
Deerfoot City is located on Deerfoot Trail, one of the province’s busiest transportation corridors. More than 128,000 vehicles pass the site daily.
The plan re-purposes an existing mature retail area. The new outdoor-focused development features a full spectrum of retail, dining and recreational opportunities.
