Shepard Development Corporation

Shepard Development Corporation is a Calgary based land development company providing commercial, retail, professional and multi family residential opportunities in Southeast Calgary.

The Shepard Regional Centre is strategically located at the intersection of 130th Avenue S.E. and Deerfoot Trail. This location provides direct access to major east, west, north and south transportation corridors, providing accessibility from all areas of the City.   The site with immediate access to both Deerfoot Trail and two LRT stations on the future LRT line, has fast, easy and efficient access to downtown Calgary.

As a main focal point in the southeast quadrant, these lands are surrounded by upscale and growing communities including Douglasdale, McKenzie Lake, McKenzie Towne, Cranston and Lake Chapparral providing a client base and significant development opportunities for commercial, professional and retail services.

The site has already demonstrated its marketability through anchor tenants such as Calgary Co-op, Walmart, Home Depot, Canadian Tire and Superstore with Phase I of the development near completion.

SDC will be developing 320 acres in north east Calgary directly east of the future Calgary International Airport Runway expansion. Located between the future Airport Trail Extension and Country Hills Boulevard to the north and south respectively and 36th Street and 44th Street on the west and east respectively, the SDC land is part of the City of Calgary’s N.E. Regional Policy Plan (NERPP). The land has been zoned as Regional Commercial and Light Industrial.

In keeping with SDC’s belief in healthy regional and community planning, the Regional Centre will be physically separated from all residential communities, avoiding traffic congestion and preserving the function of the community focused Towne Centre.

The Calgary International Airport Employment Centre will support approximately 750,000 to 1,200,000 square feet of regional retail space in the Airport Regional Centre which will be comprised of big box retailers, small CRU retailers, a light industrial park and a suburban office campus. A simple internal ring road and ample parking will make the site easy to navigate and utilize.

SDC's mission statement is: 

We are "think straight, talk straight" land development company providing quality projects for the Calgary community.
