A more connected, livable, and complete urban community.

Ranchman’s Village will be part of the ongoing evolution of the MacLeod Trail corridor.

RANCHMAN’S VILLAGE LAND USE APPLICATION

Our Vision

The development will bring new multi-residential homes, shops, and public spaces to create an active, walkable community designed for everyday life.

The proposed development covers just over 9 acres along MacLeod Trail and is currently home to Ranchman’s Cookhouse and Dancehall. The future development will revitalize underutilized commercial land, creating a connected urban destination where residents can call Ranchman’s Village home. 

Location Map

The project will transform an underutilized stretch of MacLeod Trail into a revitalized destination. Located within walking distance of two LRT stations, the site supports higher-density development near existing infrastructure. The proposed development will include multi-residential, amenity spaces, commercial retail, a walkable pedestrian main street and a public plaza – bringing together urban community & conveniences.

LOCATION BENEFITS

  • Leverage existing infrastructure

  • Efficient use of serviced land

  • Community activation can enable safer environments

  • Proximity to transit
  • Supports Calgary’s growth plan with ability for densification

  • Connected, sustainable and inclusive urban destination

Land Use Application

B&A, a CIMA+ company, is supporting Deveraux Group of Companies and Lansdowne Equity Ventures through the land use redesignation application. This is the first step in the redevelopment process. Current Land Use: General (I-G) District and Industrial – Commercial (I-C) District to the west and Commercial – Corridor 3 (C-COR3) District to the north, south and across to the east.

Two land use districts are being proposed on the site. Proposed Land Use Redesignation:

  • Mixed Use – Active Frontage (MU-2) District to allow for a broad range of residential and commercial mixed-use forms.
    The proposed maximum allowable building height is     40 metres (approximately 12 storeys).

  • Direct Control (DC) District ensures flexibility for existing & potential uses within existing buildings prior to future redevelopments. The DC also allows for the inclusion of a nightclub, while maintaining the same District restrictions as defined in the MU-2.
