Riverbend, Edmonton

Riverbend is a residential area in the southwest portion of the City of Edmonton in Alberta, Canada. It was established in 1972 through Edmonton City Council's adoption of the Riverbend-Terwillegar Heights District Outline Plan, which originally guided the overall development of Riverbend and Terwillegar Heights to the south, and the Riverbend Implementation Plan. As of 1978, Riverbend was the portion of the outline plan area that was within Edmonton's city limits as they existed at the time. In 1979, Edmonton City Council adopted the Riverbend Area Structure Plan to guide further development of the southern portion of Riverbend.
