Description
Windsor Realty first developed Forest Heights in 1911. It is assumed that the owner of Windsor Realty, James H. McKinley, an Edmonton alderman from 1909 to 1911, chose the name. Although this area became part of Edmonton in 1913, it remained agricultural land until the late 1940s, development beginning only after the end of WWII. The area between 72 Street and 79 Street and 106 Avenue and the river valley was once called West Capilano.
