A new multi-use pathway is coming to Ogden, creating safer, more connected routes for people walking and wheeling in the community

The City of Calgary is actively moving forward with the demolition of the former Ogden Legion building. An Order to demolish the structure is in place and has exhausted all appeal options. We are now in the planning phase of the demolition process.

At this stage, an external contractor is conducting a full hazard assessment of the site. We expect to receive the results of this assessment in the coming weeks. These findings will help determine the specific permits required to proceed safely. Based on the age and condition of the building, it is highly likely that asbestos and other hazards will be identified.

From June 16 - 20, 2025, filming activity will be taking place in Ogden. In order to prepare to film, there will be some temporary no parking restrictions in the area between the June 13 and June 20, 2025.

The production company has worked with The City of Calgary to obtain necessary permits and will aim to minimize disruption to residents and visitors as much as possible.

The former Ogden Legion building, once a vibrant gathering place for veterans and community members alike, is finally slated for demolition due to significant, ongoing safety concerns. Located at the corner of 78 Avenue and Ogden Road SE, the building has been vacant since 2012 and has since become a hotspot for vandalism and unauthorized occupancy.

Please note: the tennis courts at George Moss Park (7225 24 Street SE) will temprorarly close for resurfacing work for the majority of May and June.

In response to community concerns around noise assoicatited with Green Line construction of the 78 Ave SE tunnel on Ogdendale Road, EVRAZ (the City of Calgary’s contractor) engaged a third-party consultant to complete a detailed noise assessment of their work.

This study was conducted to better understand any potential impacts of construction and to ensure continued compliance with the City of Calgary's noise bylaw. The report confirms that operations remain within allowable limits and includes modeled sound levels at the property boundary, both before and after construction.

Joe Media Group Inc. will be filming in the neighbourhood of Ogden. Production has worked with The City of Calgary to obtain necessary permits and will aim to minimize disruption as much as possible.

Phase II of The George Moss Park upgrades are officially underway!

A new Skatepark and Pump Track will be key additions to the park, providing a safe and inclusive space for wheeled-sports enthusiasts to develop their skills, connect with others, and enjoy outdoor recreation.

The park’s design is shaped by consultation and research, ensuring it complements existing skateparks in the region while introducing unique features. The open layout will include a diverse mix of terrain elements, from a “street plaza” with ledges, quarter pipes, and hips to a flowing concrete pump track—the first of its kind in Calgary!
