Where classics and eclectics converge, the retailers we’re bringing into the neighbourhood are giving some new life to the northwest shopping scene. The focal point and gateway to the University District community, the Retail Main Street, and the unique boutiques, exciting entertainment venues, and dining destinations inhabiting its storefronts ensure all your appetites are satiated and your every need is met. And for those things you simply can’t seem to find? It’s a quick trip over to Market Mall and all they have to offer.
For families taking the whole gang out for a meal. For business owners entertaining clients. For a ladies’ night, a night out with the guys, or to celebrate a birthday. No matter your reason for coming together, find food, drink, and entertainment options to satisfy your every event, and choice in coffee shops to fuel your mornings and compliment your relaxed weekend schedule.
While shopping and getting social are high on the list, having the services within walking distance that keep you healthy and balanced makes a huge difference. Get your movement fill-in at boutique fitness studios. Attend galleries and cultural events at UCalgary and let your creativity soar. Going out for the evening is easy in U/D with a variety of entertainment options.
Imagine being able to access all the things that make you love your life in one community. Take care of your fur baby’s or your real baby’s needs or just treat yourself. Tackle both your wine list and your grocery list. With everyday staples right in University District, we’ve got a shop for the daily needs of your busy life.
Because no two seasons, and no two shoppers, are alike, we’ve gone to great lengths to make sure your diverse needs are fulfilled with the retailers opening their doors in U/D. Updating your style is as easy as walking out your front door.
If you need lunch or a study break, University District is the perfect destination! Be on the lookout for the U/D Student Discount branding on exterior windows and at the tills to know where discounts are offered.
