Coopers Crossing Community Reviews & Ratings

On Airdrie's southwest side, Cooper's Crossing stands as an example of what a great master-planned community can look like. Named after the Cooper family, who farmed the land for more than 100 years, this 320-acre development continues to thrive as one of Airdrie's most sought-after neighbourhoods. Community Foundation Cooper's Crossing features 44 acres of parkland, two six-acre ponds, and Discovery Park – a multi-generational gathering space with a fire pit, toboggan hill, secret forest, play structures, half-basketball court, gazebo, and picnic area. The community also welcomed Reynolds Park, the final park in Cooper's Crossing, featuring a street hockey and basketball court, zipline, parkour course, infant/toddler bucket swing, and nature critter springers . "Buzzwords like placemaking, walkability or 'live, work, play' communities are popular today, but we had a firm grasp on the importance of these concepts 20 years ago when we first started designing Cooper's Crossing," said Paul Gerla, owner and manager of WestMark Holdings Ltd., the Airdrie-based developer behind Cooper's Crossing .
