Cardel Homes plans 1,700-unit residential project on former Shaw-Nee Slopes golf course

CALGARY — Calgary home builder Cardel Homes is planning a 1,700-unit residential development in Shawnee Park after purchasing 52 hectares of land that was formerly known as the Shaw-Nee Slopes Golf Course.

The golf course ceased operations in 2011.

Cardel Homes purchased the southwest land, located alongside the southern edge of Fish Creek Park, from Geo-Energy Enterprises Ltd. The sale price was not disclosed.

The home builder said its city-approved project will consist of condo apartments, town houses, and single-family estate homes, all adjacent to Fish Creek Park. Development will begin in the fall.

“Shawnee Park will also offer a range of commercial shops and services for area residents in addition to prime access to the Fish Creek LRT Station,” said Cardel in a news release. “Community residents and the public will enjoy open access to a network of community trails and dedicated green space that were previously accessible only to golfers.”
