Mahogany

Area Structure Plan, Outline Plan & Land Use


The award winning community of Mahogany, 1300 acres in size, is located in the

City’s southeast sector. At build-out, Mahogany is projected to accommodate

12,800 units, housing over 25,000 Calgarians. The Community Plan for Mahogany was approved by Council in September 2006. The Stage 1 land use, 1100 acres in size, received approval in June 2007. Land Use approvals were completed in 2013.

The Mahogany plan is based on principles of Smart Growth and Sustainable Development. The plan provides a compact development model juxtaposed with a significant public and private open space amenity, laid out in a radial pattern giving it a unique sense of place. B&A Planning Group spearheaded the visioning, master planning and approvals for both the Area Structure Plan and the Outline Plan and Land Use Redesignations. Key elements of the plan include:

  • A Legible Community
  • Compact Development
  • A Complete Community
  • An Inclusive Community
  • Transit Oriented Development (TOD)
  • Comprehensive Open Space System
  • A Walkable Community
  • Environmental Stewardship
  • Celebration of History
