Moving in Erin Woods, Calgary: the details that matter
Streets, parking and the truck
Erin Woods Boulevard SE connects to 36 Street SE, and Erin Park Drive (community hall at number 83), Erin Circle and Erin Meadows Green SE serve the interior. Streets are 1980s width with front driveways and few lanes, so we park across the driveway apron and loop through the short closes rather than backing in.

Of 2,350 dwellings in 2021, 41% were built 1981-1990 and 36% in 1991-2000. Stock is 81% single-detached bi-levels and two-storeys with attached single garages, 10% row houses, 2% semis and 5% apartments in buildings under five storeys, so almost every job is a house move with basement stairs.
