Multi-Purpose Metropolitan Skylines

The downtown Edmonton skyline easily doubles as any modern North American city. It offers all kinds of angles for dramatic backdrops.

North Saskatchewan River Valley

The wide North Saskatchewan River Valley divides Edmonton down the middle. It’s the largest urban parkland in North America (22 times the size of NYC’s Central Park). It’s a great green space in the summer, and in winter a white vastness.

Distinctive Buildings

Edmonton’s Alberta Legislature Building is a great, old piece of sandstone splendour. A glass pyramid rises from our modern City Hall. In the river valley are a cluster of glass pyramids. The vacant Charles Camsell Hospital is a ready-made medical set. Choose from many other prominent buildings with a wide variety of characteristics.
