We’ve created the perfect mix of social spots, shops and services to make U/D a vibrant destination for Calgarians from all corners of the city. A hub for all your needs, the unique feel and community-centric local vibe of the retail main street on University Avenue draws a diverse array of people and purveyors of goods and good times together.
