History & Development

Discovery Ridge started as “New Discovery” and was initially planned as a gated community. The area was annexed by Calgary in 1956 but development began much later, in the late 1990s. This later start in development allowed for a more contemporary design and architecture in the homes, which is a notable feature of the area.
