Short answer: The Uplands is in the Riverview area on Edmonton's southwest edge, west of Anthony Henday Drive along Wedgewood Creek. It's planned around a future town centre at 199 Street and 23 Avenue. There are no schools in Riverview yet, so students are bused to schools outside the area.

About The Uplands
What it's like, and who it tends to suit.
West of the Henday
The Uplands covers about 280 hectares, between 23 Avenue on the south and Wedgewood Creek on the north, out to 215 Street. The City adopted the plan in September 2015 and amended it in November 2025.
Home types
Single-family, semi-detached and duplex homes, row and stacked row housing, and mid-rise mixed-use buildings in the planned Riverview Town Centre.
Creek and natural areas
A park and walkways along the top of the Wedgewood Creek bank, preserved natural areas and stormwater ponds.
Schools and recreation
Confirm the school for the exact address before you write an offer.
Schools are outside the area
Edmonton Public says the schools serving Riverview are located outside it, so plan on busing. I found no school site in the City's plan for The Uplands itself.
What's coming nearby
In Stillwater next door, a public K to 9 school received design funding in March 2026. In River's Edge, a K to 9 Catholic school is under construction for fall 2028. A Riverview high school is requested and not funded.
Recreation
The plan for River's Edge sets aside a district park for a future recreation centre. That's a plan with no funding. See my southwest Edmonton guide for more.
What I check on a new build in The Uplands
I've worked in new construction for 25+ years, on the trades side and the sales side. I'm not a home inspector, engineer or lawyer, and I'll tell you when you need one.
What's in the price
GST, landscaping, fencing, the deck, appliances and blinds are handled differently by each builder. I line up the all-in cost so you can compare homes fairly.
The lot
Grading and drainage, lane or front garage, and what's planned behind and beside you. Check how close you are to Anthony Henday Drive and to the town centre site, which is planned for taller mixed-use buildings.
The paperwork
Possession dates, deposit terms, what the Alberta new home warranty covers, and the walkthrough before you take the keys.
