Bankview Information
The community of Bankview is located in Calgary's inner city. It is one of Calgary's oldest communities. In 1882, William Nimmons, an English immigrant, purchased a half section of land on present day Bankview to use for ranching and farming. During the economic boom of the 1900s, this land was purchased by the city, subdivided in a traditional grid pattern, and residentially developed. In the 1950s, the community was redesigned to allow for the construction of numerous apartment walk-ups. Bankview offers panoramic views of Calgary's downtown. There is a tennis court in the area and a public school nearby.
