List of streets in Edmonton

(Redirected from 156 Street, Edmonton)

The following is a list of the north–south arterial thoroughfares in the city of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Numbered streets run north–south with street numbers increasing to the west. In 1982 a quadrant system was adopted. Meridian Street (1 Street), portions which run adjacent to the east leg of Anthony Henday Drive, divide the east and west quadrants. Edmonton currently has three quadrants: northwest (NW), southwest (SW), and northeast (NE); the vast majority of the city falls within the northwest quadrant. Addresses on 33 Street and east have been encouraged to include NW to avoid confusion with addresses in the NE quadrant. The majority of major north–south streets are aligned with road allowances.

The downtown segment of 99 Street is also known as Rue Hull, named as a honorarium and recognition of Hull, Quebec, a twin city of Edmonton.[5]

There were two proposals to rename 99 Street after Wayne Gretzky, who wore #99 and played for the Edmonton Oilers. The first proposal was in 1987, while the second proposal was in 1999 after Gretzky's retirement.[5] In the end, Capilano Drive was chosen to be renamed Wayne Gretzky Drive in part due to the proximity to Northlands Coliseum where the Oilers played during Gretzky's tenure. 99 Street was later chosen as the location of a mural dedicated to Joey Moss, the now-deceased longtime dressing room attendant for the Oilers and Canadian Football League's then-Edmonton Eskimos (now Elks), with the mural's location being a recognition of Gretzky's role in persuading the Oilers to hire Moss.

101 Street is a major arterial road in Downtown Edmonton. Because Jasper Avenue, and historic downtown Edmonton, was constructed to follow the North Saskatchewan River, 101 Street is the farthest east street that runs true south–north. 97 Street is an alternate artery that travels north out of downtown, at a slight angle west. 97 and 101 Streets meet one block apart from each other at 111 Avenue, and travel parallel to each other true north, eliminating the numbers 98 through 100 as street names for North Edmonton. Originally called 1st Street, 101 Street was identified as the central north–south street when Edmonton adopted its present numbering system.[6]

South of MacDonald Drive (one block south of Jasper Avenue), the roadway becomes Bellamy Hill Road and descends Bellamy Hill into the North Saskatchewan River valley and intersects 97 Avenue. South of 97 Avenue it becomes River Valley Road and runs parallel to the river. Bellamy Hill Road is named after Thomas Bellamy, a former alderman in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
