Hollick-Kenyon
Hollick-Kenyon is a mature northeast Edmonton neighbourhood that developed primarily in the late 1970s and 1980s, taking its name from Herbert Hollick-Kenyon, a celebrated Canadian bush pilot and Arctic explorer from Edmonton who became one of the first aviators to fly over Antarctica. The aviation heritage name reflects the northeast Edmonton tradition of honouring local pioneers, and the neighbourhood has established itself as a consistent, complete family community with the mature infrastructure of the northeast's best residential areas.
