We are Calgary’s go-to city-building placemakers

We imagine the possibilities and seize the opportunities to transform Calgary and the ways people experience it.

Our History

CMLC was created in 2007 to revitalize the Rivers District—504 acres on downtown Calgary’s east end.

Our transformation of the city’s urban landscape began with East Village—now among the city’s most sought-after neighbourhoods. In 2017, we expanded our focus to include neighbouring east Victoria Park, now undergoing a dramatic transformation into The C+E—Calgary’s Culture + Entertainment District. In 2025, we broadened our boundaries to bring the vision and talent that’s transforming the Rivers District to other communities in Calgary through Transit-Oriented Community development in support of the City’s Housing Strategy.

We respectfully acknowledge that our work in the Rivers District is located at the confluence of the Bow and Elbow Rivers in a place called Moh’kinstsis, a Blackfoot word that means elbow. It is in the spirit of truth, respect and reciprocity that we honour and acknowledge Moh’kinstsis, and recognize the traditional territories and oral practices of the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Piikani and the Kainai Nations; the Îyâxe Nakoda, including the Chiniki, Bearspaw and Goodstoney Nations; and the Tsuut’ina Nation. The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Districts 5 and 6.
