Living in Bonnie Doon.
The west part of Bonnie Doon joined Strathcona in 1907 and Edmonton in 1912, and the east part joined in 1913. Streetcar service made the area attractive, and early residents built in the northwest corner, beside the Mill Creek Ravine and overlooking the river.
By 1950 less than half of today's homes were built. After World War II and the Leduc oil discovery, most of the remaining land filled in.
Bonnie Doon Shopping Centre was one of Edmonton's first large shopping centres and is still a hub for the area. The name is Scottish for "pleasant, rolling countryside".
