Living in Wîhkwêntôwin (Oliver).
Wîhkwêntôwin is the inner-city neighbourhood just west of downtown, with the river valley on its south side and 124 Street on its west. The City renamed it from Oliver to Wîhkwêntôwin in 2024, and many people still call it Oliver.
It was once known as Edmonton's "West End". Building started in the 1880s with hospitals, churches and schools, and homes filled in before World War I. The south and west parts were among the city's more fashionable streets, with large homes and tree-lined boulevards.
From the late 1950s, as Edmonton boomed, many of the original houses were replaced with apartments. Today it is one of the most densely populated neighbourhoods in the city, with shops and restaurants threaded throughout.
