This trendy street boasts multiple buildings from the turn of the 20th century and was originally the hub of Edmonton’s fur trading industry. Chock-a-block full of brick facades, original hand-painted wall ads, and once-upon-a-time warehouses, and a neon sign museum, it’s worth the multiple block stroll to take in its vintage vibes. On the south end (99 Avenue) you’ll find a beautiful tree-lined neighbourhood featuring the McKay Avenue School, built in 1905, and on the north end (between Jasper Avenue and 104 Avenue), there is an array of shops, cafes, restaurants, and bars. Plus, where 104 Avenue meets 104 Street, the newest and shiniest of Edmonton’s architectural feats, Rogers Place, sits proud.
Tip: We suggest hitting up the outdoor market held on Saturdays if you’re visiting between May-October, for lots of local treats like Moonshine Doughnuts or Caramia Caramels.
