These areas were annexed to Edmonton between 1904 and 1920 with a majority of the residential development occurring in the 1940s and 1950s. Now, friendly communities where people get to know each other and enjoy where they live. Inglewood The initial development of Inglewood and Prince Charles communities were prompted by the extension of the electric street car in 1913 which offered service until 1948. The Westmount Shopping Centre was built in 1955 in the adjacent Woodcroft neighbourhood which then attracted more people to the area. The former Charles Camsell Hospital stands as a reminder of the past and is slowly being prepared for redevelopment. There are great parks to visit and enjoy, including an off-leash dog park area, playground and toboggan hill in 121A Street Linear Park. Prince Charles This neighbourhood was originally known as North Inglewood. In 1953, the existing elementary school was renamed in honour of HRH Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales. The name was adopted by the community league, which petitioned to formally apply the name to the neighbourhood. The housing is varied, spanning 100 years of development. There are homes built before WWII that sit next to newer homes built in 2000s. Along 118th Avenue, there are restaurants and pubs to enjoy with friends. Sherbrooke In the early 1950’s, the Sherbrooke subdivision was replotted under the direction of the City’s first town planner, Noel Dant. This was one of the first subdivisions in North America to be designed using the ‘neighbourhood unit’ concept as a basis of its plan. The design is meant to discourage through traffic and improve the attractiveness of the neighbourhood. In the centre of the community is Sherbrooke Park that has a great playground with a spray deck for the summer and a skating rink in the winter. This map identifies parks, points of interest, community gardens and heritage homes that make these neighbourhoods unique. There are five suggested walking routes that are enjoyable any time of year. Take a walk soon and experience the communities of Inglewood, Prince Charles and Sherbrooke. Inglewood, Prince Charles & Sherbrooke Beaver Bench
