About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Join our team for an exclusive tour of the Livingston Pond E MAGNA Stormpark™️, an award-winning stormwater system shaping the future of urban spaces in northwest Calgary! Covering approximately 500 hectares, this innovative design blends smart infrastructure with natural landscapes, proving that cities and nature can thrive together.

During the tour, you'll discover how constructed wetlands function as natural filters, improving water quality by removing pollutants and providing habitats for diverse wildlife. These wetlands enhance climate resiliency by mitigating floods, sequestering carbon, and offering green spaces that benefit both the environment and the community.

See firsthand how thoughtful design improves water quality, protects communities, and transforms urban spaces into thriving ecosystems. Don’t miss this unique chance to explore a greener, smarter way to build for the future!

MEETING SPOT: (https://maps.app.goo.gl/sFewhMoG3dx6zZxx7) - There is a platform that overlooks the pond with benches by the corner of Lewiston View NE and Lewiston Way NE. - We encourage carpooling!
