FOREST LAWN

Once a town in its own right, Forest Lawn was first settled in the early 1900s but annexed by the City of Calgary in 1961. The community is bound by 26 Avenue SE, 36 Street Se, 8 Avenue SE, 52 Street SE, and 48 Street SE. Two recreational pools serve the area, the Bob Bahan Aquatic and Fitness Centre, and the Forest Lawn Outdoor Pool, which is operated by the community association.

Nearby amenities include the Ernie Starr Arena, Fonda Park, and a variety of restaurants and shops along 17 Ave. Schools serving the area include Forest Lawn Senior High, Jack James Senior High, Ian Bazalgette Junior High, Ernes Morrow Junior Higher, Patrick Airlie Elementary, and three Catholic schools for all grades.
