Woodine / Woodlands
S
The community of Woodbine's southern border is Fish Creek Provincial Park. Residential development in Woodbine began in 1980 and has been designed to both ensure protection of the escarpment and provide suitable buffering for the park. Woodbine is bound by Anderson Road S.W. to the north, by 24 Street S.W. to the east and the city limits to the west.

Woodlands is located in the southwest sector of the City, just north of Fish Creek Provincial Park. This community lies on the southern portion of a plateau bordering Fish Creek Provincial Park. The land was annexed in 1961, but development did not begin in Woodlands until 1974. A large parcel of land in the northwest corner of the community is currently occupied by the William Roper Hull Child and Family Services. William Roper, a prominent rancher in the area, bequeathed his land for this purpose. Another major land holder in Woodlands is the Canyon Meadows Golf and Country Club, located in the northeast corner of the community. The remainder of Woodlands is developed primarily for single family residential development.

Schools include: St. Jude Elementary School - Separate, Woodbine Elementary School - Public, William Roper Hull School (Special Education)- Public and Woodlands Elementary School - Public

Both communities are represented in the Calgary City Council by Ward 13 Alderman Diane Colley-Urquhart.
