Moving in Bonavista Downs, Calgary: the details that matter
Streets, parking and the truck
The community is a compact grid of 1970s bungalow streets named after lakes, including Lake Huron Crescent, Lake Ontario Drive, Lake Michigan Road and Lake Michigan Drive SE. Streets are wide with front driveways where we back in; the Bow Bottom Trail bus trap blocks vehicle entry, so we come in off Anderson Road.
The homes and buildings here
Of 345 dwellings in 2021, 99% were built 1961-1980, and 99% are single-detached houses: 1970s bungalows with attached or front garages and full basements, many still with original layouts. There are no apartments, row houses or elevators, so every job is a single-family house move with one basement stair.
Who moves in Bonavista Downs
Bonavista Downs had 830 residents in 2021, down from 1,474 in 1982, with 18% over 65; 83% of its 345 households own and only 7% of residents moved in the past year. Our typical job is a long-time owner leaving an original bungalow to a young family or an estate sale.
One tip for your Bonavista Downs move
Original bungalows here often have a single-car garage and a driveway that fits one vehicle: move your car onto the street the night before so we can back the truck to the garage door for the appliances and basement load.
