Bonnie Doon Community Overview
Bonnie Doon is a neighbourhood in south-central Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The western part of Bonnie Doon was originally part of the City of Strathcona, and became a part of Edmonton when Strathcona and Edmonton merged in 1912. The rest of the land in the neighbourhood was incorporated by Edmonton the following year.
It is the heart of the Franco-Albertan community and hosts the only francophone university west of Manitoba, the University of Alberta's Faculté Saint-Jean, which is located just north of Whyte Avenue on Rue Marie-Anne Gaboury (91 Street).
The neighbourhood is also home to one of Edmonton's first major shopping malls, Bonnie Doon Shopping Centre.
The neighbourhood extends roughly from the North Saskatchewan River Valley in the north to Whyte (82) Avenue in the south, and Mill Creek Ravine in the west to 83 Street in the east.
There are one school in the neighbourhood: Rutherford Elementary School.
