Quarry Park’s New YMCA to Add Even More Desirability to an Already Sought After Community

Have you heard of the new recreational centre being built in Quarry Park? Lo and behold, the desirability of this southeast Calgary community just got a huge boost considering the state-of-the-art facility is now under construction!

But then and again, Quarry Park was never in need of a brand new recreational centre to help its current residents and potential buyers realize their dreams of living in the area. It is already one of the most sought after new community developments in the southeast boasting a riverside location, central town-like market, and upscale properties of all sorts. Learn more at our Quarry Park Community Review today.

And now, a new 100,000 square foot recreational centre to be operated by the YMCA will add another dimension of desirability for Quarry Park’s already complete list of check-marks, as well as for those nearby neighbourhoods who will also benefit immensely.

More direct beneficiaries include those workers at the new headquarters of Canadian Pacific Railway, Imperial Oil, Lafarge, and central market who choose to take advantage of what the facility has to offer.

After all, it will only be a stone throw away from the front doors of their work place - Live, Work, and Play in Quarry Park anybody? I think so!!
