The Creeks

The Creeks is located just east of The Greens on Gardiner. "As you travel towards The Creeks, you leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind and arrive home to a peaceful setting that is connected to nature," says its creator, Kevin Reese. Every area of The Creeks is connected to a green-way - pathways lined with grass and foliage, and all the greenways are connected to each other, and will pass through two new parks in this area, as well as to the McKell Conservation area. The greenways and roads will eventually connect with the neighbouring communities, and have been developed to accommodate public transit. The Creeks remains within the city's compact footprint which means that for this new neighbourhood, which is on the outlying east part of the city, it is still only a 10 minute drive to downtown, or the University of Regina, with the commercial amenities on the east side of the city being very close by.

Other features that punctuate this new neighbourhood include wider roads, for safe cycling, and more pleasing streetscapes with sidewalks that are separated from the streets with boulevards, and decorative lighting, as well as a beautiful brick wall that defines its boundaries and adds to the aesthetics of the city. This new neighbourhood will eventually provide 600 new single family homes, many of which are on mid-range to larger sized lots of 48 – 60 feet, and about 180 town houses in The Creek’s Edge, a condominium development. One little known fact about this new neighbourhood is the new 8 million dollar pumping station that was front-ended by the developer which will provide not only services to the 780 new homes in The Creeks, but has the capacity to service up to 14,000 new homes, thus providing some of the infrastructure for neighbouring and future new communities in this area.
