Grandview Heights NCP Area #1: Morgan Heights

Morgan Heights is the name of a first neighbourhood to be planned within the broader Grandview Heights community. Planning for this area was guided by the 2005 Grandview Heights General Land Use Plan (GLUP). The Morgan Heights Neighbourhood Concept Plan (NCP), which followed the GLUP, features a mix of housing types with three new neighbourhood parks. It is centered on Southridge Private School.

This plan, now largely build out, provides direction on the type and density of development, urban design, parks and community amenities and engineering infrastructure for the neighbourhood.

Plan Area

The plan area is bordered by the Highway 99 Corridor Local Area Plan to the west, 28 Avenue to the north, 24 Avenue to the south and 164 Street to the east. The plan area encompasses about 80 hectares (196 acres) of land.
