Grovenor is a residential neighbourhood in west Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It was originally called Westgrove and a professional building on 142 Street still uses that name.

The neighbourhood is bounded on the east by 142 Street, on the west by 149 Street, on the north by 107 Avenue, and on the south by the MacKinnon Ravine. Stony Plain Road, a four-lane corridor linking downtown Edmonton and western suburban areas, bisects the neighbourhood.

The community is represented by the Grovenor Community League, established in 1952, which maintains a community hall and outdoor rink located at 143 Street and 104 Avenue.[6][7]
