About Brander Gardens, Edmonton
Brander Gardens, formerly known as Glamorgan, is a well-planned residential neighborhood in southwest Edmonton. Annexed to the city in 1960, it became part of the Riverbend-Terwillegar Heights Outline Plan, Edmonton’s first large-scale, master-planned residential community. Development took off in the 1970s, with most housing consisting of row homes and low-rise apartments strategically placed near major roads, recreational areas, and shopping centers. Designed for efficient traffic flow, Brander Gardens features curvilinear streets, cul-de-sacs, and a network of pathways that encourage walking and biking.
Bordering the North Saskatchewan River Valley, Brander Gardens offers scenic beauty and direct access to Fort Edmonton Park, one of the city’s premier historical attractions. Residents enjoy convenient shopping at Riverbend Shopping Centre and easy access to Whitemud Freeway, connecting them to key commercial and employment hubs. Named after George Brander, a renowned Edmonton horticulturist, the neighborhood carries a legacy of natural beauty, making it an attractive choice for families and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
