The month of May brings warmer weather, and the return of Edmonton’s quintessential summer experience: High Level Streetcar rides. However, did you know that streetcars have a significant history in our city? Edmonton used to have an extensive streetcar network that served residents, every day.

Our city’s landscape is ever-changing, now more than ever. However, IDEA’s stance on real estate development has always been people-focused.

Check out the full video to hear from Sean Sedgwick, IDEA’s Executive Director on his “Why” when it comes to infill development.

What do you think of when you think of the term “infill”? We are sure skinny homes and residential 8-plexes come to mind. However, IDEA has always reiterated the value of community when it comes to infill development. One cannot talk about community without considering “Third Places”: social environments that are distinct from home (“first place”) and work (“second place”).

Check out our newest opinion-editorial “Where Did the Third Place Go?” by IDEA Board Member, and ’ Ranon Soans on why he believes “Infill is not Only a Housing Argument.”

On this episode of In Development, Allison Rosland and IDEA Executive Director, Sean Sedgwick sit down with Edmonton’s Mayor, for a discussion about his vision for the city, what inspires him, and his perspectives on infill.

Andrew Knack was elected in October 2025 as the 37th Mayor of Edmonton.
Born in Edmonton and raised west of the city in Spruce Grove, Andrew returned to Edmonton to attend the University of Alberta, where he obtained a Bachelor of Commerce in 2002. Inspired by local advocacy through his roles on the Meadowlark and Jasper Park Community League boards, Knack ran for Councillor for Ward Nakota Isga (formerly Ward 1) and was elected in 2013. He served three terms as a Councillor and is best known for his work to secure improved transit and amenities for west end neighbourhoods. Knack has also served on the Alberta Municipalities Executive Committee and as Council’s representative on the Accessibility Advisory Committee, the City of Edmonton Youth Council, the Edmonton Transit System Advisory Board, and the Edmonton Public Library Board.

In this term, Mayor Knack’s focus is on affordability, safety, economic development, and strengthening the support needed to build a stronger Edmonton together.

It’s no secret that Edmontonians have been grappling with rising food costs over the past few years. As of March 2026, Edmonton City Council passed a motion to invalidate restrictive covenants with the provincial government on former supermarket sites. However, are restrictive covenants the real reason behind our city’s “food deserts”?

Check out IDEA’s newest opinion-editorial “Restrictive Covenants Did Not Kill Neighbourhood Grocery Stores” by Riker Farmer to understand (what we believe) is the bigger picture to the lack of convenient, and affordable grocer options.
