Edgemont Village is a neighbourhood within the District of North Vancouver, in British Columbia, Canada. It is situated between several converging suburbs, centring on the intersection of Edgemont Boulevard and Highland Boulevard, where it is a minor residential and commercial centre for local communities. According to the District of North Vancouver's Official Community Plan, Edgemont Village encompasses the shops and tenements along and immediately surrounding Edgemont Boulevard between West Queens Road and Ridgewood Drive.[1] However, it is broadly recognized as taking up much of the hillside plateau between the Mackay and Mosquito creeks, bordering Ridgewood Drive to the north and the Upper Levels Highway to the south.
While the City of North Vancouver continues to be the North Shore's primary commercial and residential center, Edgemont Village serves as a village centre for its surrounding neighbourhoods. It is one of six such village centres (Lions Gate, Edgemont, Queensdale, Maplewood, Parkgate, and Deep Cove) in the District of North Vancouver.[1] Edgemont's commercial core consists of many small or local businesses and services to meet most daily needs; a range of eclectic shops; and district amenities, including the North Vancouver District Public Library (Capilano Branch) and Highlands United Church. The area is also home to many examples of mid-century "west coast modernism" architecture.
