The story · 1800s onward, mixed eras
How Rossdale came to be.
Rossdale is one of Edmonton's oldest places. In 1802 two fur-trading forts stood on these flats, and it was a supply point in the Klondike Gold Rush. It was the first home of the exhibition grounds (until 1911) and had a brewery, ice house, lumber yard, coal mine and the Rossdale power plant. It also holds a historic burial ground.
