Overview
A former school site finds new purpose
David D. Oughton is an 8.77-acre site of a former school in Albert Park/Radisson Heights. CMLC purchased the land from The City in 2018. In 2023, we finalized a partnership with Attainable Homes Calgary to build 'The Heights', 230 affordable townhome-style homes and a dedicated green space with fenced off-leash dog park, basketball courts and gathering spaces. Construction is underway and the first families began to move in in spring 2026.
