Rideau Park Homes

During the early years in Rideau Park, Dr. Neville James Lindsay, a prominent physician and developer undertook construction of a large mansion at an escarpment on the east banks of the Elbow River. Due to financial constrains, Lindsay's ambitious project was never completed, though overgrown remnants of sandstone walls still stand at the spot, which also affords a great view of the Calgary metro area. Perhaps one day Lindsay's vision will be realized by another homebuilder.
