Falconridge Rentals Near Prairie Winds | Livenvo Rent
East of Calgary International Airport, Falconridge shares elevated ground and skyline views with its neighbour Castleridge, the two developing together after 1961 annexation from the Municipal District of Rocky View. Established in 1979, the community's green space includes Falshire Park and Prairie Winds Park, home to one of the northeast's few outdoor pools.
Falconridge was part of the Municipal District of Rocky View until its annexation to Calgary in 1961, with the community itself established in 1979. It's bounded by Falconridge Boulevard to the west, 64th Avenue NE to the north, 68th Street NE to the east, and McKnight Boulevard to the south, developing alongside its adjacent neighbour Castleridge just east of Calgary International Airport. The elevated terrain here gives many streets clear views of both the downtown skyline and the Rocky Mountains on clear days, a feature shared with Castleridge. Falshire Park and Prairie Winds Park, which includes an outdoor pool, give the community two sizeable green spaces beyond its residential streets, and the Falconridge/Castleridge Community Association is among the more active in the city, running family programming through its community centre. Housing is mostly low-rise and single-family, built through the 1980s. Renters have access to McKnight Boulevard for east-west travel and Metis Trail for a quick route north or south, along with several public and separate schools including Bishop McNally High School nearby. For renters who want an established northeast community with real green space and airport-adjacent convenience, Falconridge fits the bill.
