Parkallen Community Information

Parkallen is a residential neighbourhood in south Edmonton, Alberta, Canada located just to the east of the University of Alberta farm and the Neil Crawford Centre. Most of the neighborhood development occurred after the end of World War II with eight out of ten residences constructed by 1960 according to the 2005 municipal census.
