Our History
Originally part of the Town of Beverly, Beverly Heights became a part of Edmonton in 1961 when the town and city amalgamated. The neighbourhood is a diverse, multi-generational community full of history set in a lovely mature parkland—a wonderful place to call home.
The Beverly Heights Community League has been serving the Beverly Heights and Rundle Heights areas - east of 50th Street, south of 118th Avenue and bordered on the south and east by the river - since 1965. We have over 3,000 homes and 6,500 residents in our community. Although we have many families new to the area, we also have some who have lived here since before we became a part of Edmonton!
All of our activities - from offering dance classes or hosting New Year's Eve parties to fixing a leaking roof or buying a new coffee maker - are funded exclusively through volunteering, donations, or grants. Our elected volunteer board works hard organizing everything from the mundane tasks of building maintenance to the extraordinary programming and events for you to enjoy.
This deep commitment by our community to our community is what makes Beverly and Rundle Heights the best place in the city to live!
