Community Spaces & Landscape at Heritage Crossing

At Heritage Crossing, outdoor spaces are more than a backdrop, they’re an important part of everyday life. Thoughtfully planned pathways, parks, ponds, and natural landscaping create a community that feels connected to the Foothills landscape while offering places to walk, play, gather, and unwind.

Here’s what homeowners can look forward to as the community landscaping reaches completion.

Greenspaces Throughout the Community

The Heart of Heritage Crossing. Designed for Connection, Recreation and Everyday Well-Being.

One of the defining features of Heritage Crossing is the abundance of open space woven throughout the neighbourhood.

Many homes back directly onto greenspaces, pathways, and landscaped corridors, providing enhanced views and a greater sense of openness. These areas have been thoughtfully designed to preserve sightlines, create gathering spaces, and connect residents to nature.

The community is anchored by two landscaped ponds that serve as beautiful focal points. Natural plantings, ornamental grasses, native shrubs, and stone features help blend these areas seamlessly into the surrounding landscape, creating peaceful places to enjoy throughout the year.

Benches and seating areas located along pathways and around the ponds provide opportunities to relax, meet neighbours, or simply enjoy the view.

A Connected Pathway System

Your daily escape, right outside your front door.

A network of paved pathways links every corner of Heritage Crossing, making it easy to explore the community by foot or bicycle.

The pathway system connects residents to greenspaces, ponds, parks, and gathering areas while providing a scenic route for daily walks, bike rides, and outdoor recreation. Along the way, residents will find benches, landscaped viewpoints, and access to the community’s major amenities.

Whether it’s a morning walk, an evening bike ride, or a stroll with the family dog, the pathway network helps make outdoor living part of everyday life.

Playground, Trellis & Gathering Space

A place to play, gather, and stay a while.

Located along the pathway system, the community playground is designed as a natural gathering place for families and neighbours.

The playground features nature-inspired play equipment built with durable, climate-resilient materials and surrounded by natural landscaping and boulder features.

Adjacent to the playground, a covered trellis structure creates a comfortable place to gather, socialize, or take a break while children play. With bench seating and seasonal plantings nearby, this space will become a natural hub for community connection.

Naturalized Landscaping & Planting

Rooted in Alberta. Designed to last.

The planting palette at Heritage Crossing draws from the native and naturalized species that have always defined this part of the province. Deciduous and coniferous trees including Trembling Aspen, Lodgepole Pine, Schubert Chokecherry, and Hoopsii Spruce are planted generously throughout the community’s parks, pathways, and open spaces. Native shrubs complete the picture: Saskatoon berry, Wolf Willow, Prickly Rose, Dwarf Korean Lilac, Manchurian Ash, Woodrose, and more.

Open lawn areas are seeded in a native bright seed mix, while the Environmental Reserve corridors are naturalized drainage channels and  woven through the community. They are established with a prairie seed mix, creating habitat for local pollinators and adding year-round texture and movement to the landscape. Planting beds are finished with rundle rock mulch, keeping the aesthetic grounded in the local terrain.

Landscaping Your Front Yard

Nature at Your Doorstep

Every homesite at Heritage Crossing includes professionally planned front-yard landscaping completed by the builder upon home construction (ongoing care and maintenance will be under the care of the homeowner). Homeowners will receive:

• A developer-provided front yard tree
• Four shrubs
• Full sod or approved landscaping treatment
• Developer-installed rear black chain-link fencing

For homes backing onto parks, pathways, or open spaces, enhanced rear architectural detailing helps create attractive views from shared community areas while maintaining a cohesive neighbourhood appearance.
