CARTER CREST NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE
Carter Crest neighbourhood was designed to integrate seamlessly with surrounding residential areas, and to provide an attractive community for its residents. Access to and from the community is provided by arterial roads on its borders but the interior loops and cul-de-sacs road pattern is designed to limit the negative impacts of traffic within the residential areas. Robert Carter Park, located in the northeast portion of the neighbourhood, provides residents with open space, and a system of pathways provides for efficient pedestrian and bicycle access throughout the neighbourhood. The neighbourhood features a combination of low and medium density residential units, but single-detached housing does comprise the majority of units.
Carter Crest is named after Robert I. Carter (1858-1931) who was a Canadian government agent who advised Americans on their immigration prospects to Canada.
