Homes Near Coliseum LRT Station
Coliseum Station stands at 118 Avenue and 76 Street, beside the Edmonton EXPO Centre and the old arena grounds — the Capital Line's gateway to Edmonton's exhibition lands and to three of its most characterful inner-city neighbourhoods: Alberta Avenue, Eastwood and Parkdale. This is the 118 Avenue revival story: arts, food and community leagues layered over a deep stock of character houses that sell for less than almost anywhere else this close to downtown.
Buyers search here for the combination, not just the train: a character bungalow or a renovated infill, a main street with galleries and bakeries, and a platform that puts downtown about ten minutes away. Investors see the other side of the same coin — the lowest sold prices on the inner-city LRT map, with a station, an events centre and a main street holding demand up.

The sold figures
Window for every figure: November 9, 2025 – November 8, 2026. Source: Paragon MLS® sold data. Areas counted: Alberta Avenue, Eastwood and Parkdale.
| Sales | Median sold price | Median days on market |
| Single-family homes | 188 | $268,200 | 27 days |
| Condos | 31 | $140,000 | 36 days |
| All property types | 219 | $260,000 | 28 days |
Single-family homes dominate: 188 sales at a median sold price of $268,200, in a median of 27 days — 95% of them under $500,000. Prices ran from $110,000 to $935,000, a range that captures this district honestly: teardown-and-infill lots at the bottom, lovingly restored character homes and new infill builds at the top, and a deep bench of solid bungalows in between.
Condos are a smaller, quieter market here: 31 sales at a median of $140,000, taking a median of 36 days. This is a house neighbourhood first — the condo stock is mostly small low-rise buildings, and buyers have time to choose.
How these numbers were worked out: these figures count the whole neighbourhoods whose homes sit within roughly a 10-minute walk (about 800 m to 1 km) of Coliseum Station — Alberta Avenue, Eastwood and Parkdale. Delton, just north of Eastwood, is not counted: most of its homes sit beyond that walk. Parkdale is also counted on the Stadium Station page, where it is within that station's walk-shed too — the overlap is deliberate and stated on both pages.
Community highlights
- Coliseum Station on the Capital Line — about ten minutes to downtown, beside the EXPO Centre grounds.
- 118 Avenue (Alberta Avenue) — galleries, the Nina Haggerty Centre for the Arts, bakeries, grocers and the Avenue's festival calendar.
- Edmonton EXPO Centre and K-Days on the station's doorstep.
- Character housing stock — 1910s-to-1950s homes on tree-lined streets in Eastwood and Parkdale.
- Sprucewood and Eastwood community league life, rinks and playgrounds.
- Borden Park just east — bandshell, natural swimming pool and picnic grounds.
118 Avenue district real estate
This is Edmonton's character-house bargain shelf, and the market knows the difference between the shelves: original-condition bungalows trade on lot and bones; renovated homes and skinny infill command real premiums; and the Avenue's commercial energy keeps pulling new owners in. Eastwood and Parkdale give you mature trees and front-porch streets; Alberta Avenue gives you the main street itself.
Who buys here? First-time buyers who want a house near downtown without a suburb commute, renovators and infill builders, artists and young families following the 118 Avenue scene, and landlords — the station, NAIT bus links and the EXPO Centre keep rental demand steady at prices that still cash-flow.
About living near Coliseum Station
Life here runs on the Avenue: coffee and groceries on 118, festivals through the summer, K-Days fireworks in July, and quiet residential streets one block in either direction. It is an inner-city neighbourhood with inner-city edges — buyers should walk the specific street at different hours, the way locals do, and buy the block, not just the house.

Getting around
Coliseum is a walk-on Capital Line station, about ten minutes to downtown and a straight run to the University and Century Park; the EXPO Centre transit centre beside it feeds buses across the northeast. Drivers use 118 Avenue, 82 Street and the Yellowhead. For NAIT and the Royal Alexandra Hospital, it is a short bus ride west — which is part of why staff and students rent and buy here.

Frequently asked questions
What have homes near Coliseum Station actually sold for?
In the year to November 8, 2026, 188 single-family homes sold at a median of $268,200 in a median of 27 days, and 31 condos sold at a median of $140,000, across Alberta Avenue, Eastwood and Parkdale (Paragon MLS®).
How is this page different from the Commonwealth Stadium guide?
This page counts only the walk-shed around Coliseum Station — Alberta Avenue, Eastwood and Parkdale. The stadium guide counts a wider six-neighbourhood district, so its figures are different by design; both pages state their areas on the page.
Why is Delton not counted?
Delton sits just north of Eastwood and most of its homes are beyond a 10-minute walk of the platform, so it is named and excluded rather than folded in.
Is the 118 Avenue area good for a first home?
A $268,200 single-family median ten minutes from downtown by train is one of the strongest first-home cases in the inner city — with the honest caveat to buy the block: streets vary, and Travis will walk the specific street's sold history with you before you offer.
