Glenora, one of Edmonton's most venerable and affluent neighbourhoods, offers a scenic residential area with a rich history. Established in the early 20th century, Glenora's development was initially exclusive, with covenants that specified the minimum cost of residential buildings and excluded certain classes of people from owning property. Over the years, this neighbourhood has maintained its prestigious standing, attracting those who seek a tranquil, yet distinctly urban lifestyle. As of the latest census data, Glenora is home to approximately 3,514 residents living in around 1,450 dwellings.

Glenora is bounded by 107th Avenue to the north, Groat Road to the east, the North Saskatchewan River to the south, and 142nd Street to the west. Its geographical setting not only offers splendid views but also affords a feeling of being connected to the heart of Edmonton while retaining a sense of secluded exclusivity.
The vast majority of homes in Glenora were constructed after WWII and before 1960. There was a great demand for real estate at the time, and since Edmonton was still quite small, areas close to the downtown core were the first to become fully developed. To this day, many of those homes remain as they were sturdily built and are considered still an adequate size. However, as property values increase, some homes have been replaced with larger, more expensive infill homes – especially smaller homes in areas overlooking the river valley or close to the ravine. Most homes in Glenora are single family detached houses. There are very few lowrise apartments in Glenora, and only a handful of duplexes, triplexes or row houses. There are quite a few highrise units in Glenora, however, because of Crescent Place and West Block.
