Steinhauer
Steinhauer is a mature southwest Edmonton neighbourhood that developed primarily in the 1970s and early 1980s in the area south of 51 Avenue west of Gateway Boulevard, taking its name from Ralph Garvin Steinhauer — a prominent Alberta Cree leader who served as Lieutenant Governor of Alberta from 1974 to 1979. The Indigenous heritage naming honours one of Alberta's most respected political and community figures, and the neighbourhood has established itself as a consistent, family-oriented community with the mid-century character of mature southwest Edmonton.

Steinhauer is a mature southwest Edmonton neighbourhood that developed primarily in the 1970s and early 1980s in the area south of 51 Avenue west of Gateway Boulevard, taking its name from Ralph Garvin Steinhauer — a prominent Alberta Cree leader who served as Lieutenant Governor of Alberta from 1974 to 1979. The Indigenous heritage naming honours one of Alberta's most respected political and community figures, and the neighbourhood has established itself as a consistent, family-oriented community with the mid-century character of mature southwest Edmonton.
The housing stock is primarily single-family homes from the 1970s and early 1980s, with the two-car garages and family-oriented floor plans of that development era. Some semi-detached and multi-family properties provide additional variety. Homes have been updated to varying degrees over the decades, and the range of condition accommodates buyers across multiple budget levels. Prices are accessible within the south Edmonton market, providing reasonable family value in an established neighbourhood.
The Gateway Boulevard commercial corridor provides retail and services access. The south Edmonton commercial infrastructure, including the Century Park area, is accessible. LRT access via Century Park connects the neighbourhood to the Metro line. Schools serve the community across southwest Edmonton public and Catholic catchments. The community league is active in maintaining outdoor recreation facilities and programming.
For buyers, Steinhauer is a practical southwest Edmonton neighbourhood — established 1970s and 1980s homes, accessible pricing, LRT proximity, and the community infrastructure of mature southwest Edmonton. For sellers, consistent family demand and a consistent base of south Edmonton buyers create reliable market conditions for well-maintained properties.
