Eau Claire and Prince's Island Park
Calgary’s Diverse and Vibrant Urban Core

THE EAU CLAIRE/PRINCE’S ISLAND COMMUNITY awaits you with breathtaking scenery and forestry, the Bow River, walking and cycling paths, foot-bridges to outstanding park serenity, duck ponds, scenes of nature and splendid choices of restaurants, shopping and some of Calgary’s business skylines, right before your eyes! Please visit my photo gallery in order to see more images of this unique community.

EAU CLAIRE is bounded by Prince’s Island and the Bow River on the north, and 3rd Avenue on the south, extending from 2nd Street, South West to 8th Street, South West.

Many years ago, a Calgary businessman changed the waterscape of Calgary, when he channeled a “lagoon” between an island in the Bow River, to accommodate logs destined for the “Eau Claire Lumber Company’s” sawmill. The island created became known as “PRINCE’S ISLAND”. Within short walking distances of the ‘EAU CLAIRE/PRINCE’S ISLAND’ community, a distinctively and attractively designed condominium, villa/townhome style of living has been created within this exciting community of EAU CLAIRE/PRINCE’S ISLAND.

Most of these “life choices” were constructed since 1994, and continue to creatively fit the skyline of Calgary’s business community. Complexes such as ‘PRINCE’s ISLAND ESTATES’, EAU CLAIRE ESTATES, EAU CLAIRE LOOKOUT, LACAILLE ON THE BOW, LACAILLE RESIDENCES,THE PRINCETON(s),POINT ON THE BOW and RIVER RUN, are just a few condominium complexes that enjoy full or partial north-west views, views of the mountains, views of the Bow River, and views to the south-west, and the business community nearby.

EAU CLAIRE/PRINCE’S ISLAND is the site of many world renown music and cultural festivals. Summer highlights include the TD International Jazz Festival, the Calgary Folk Music Festival, the Shakespeare in the Park performance series, and various other Festivals. All of this, and many other entertainment and sporting activities, can be enjoyed from the comfort of your very own condominium or villa/townhome, the pathways across the “Lagoon”, and along the walking paths to the West and East parts of Prince’s Island.

Don’t forget to enjoy a walk in the park, bring your basket of food, relax on the shoreline of PRINCE’S ISLAND, or in the 18 acres of lush green park that comprises the interior of Prince’s Island; stop and ‘smell the flowers’ or take a leisurely stroll alongside the BOW RIVER!
