Brighton

Nestled into the picturesque landscape of Saskatoon's highly desirable east end, the beautiful neighbourhood of Brighton is quickly taking form. It has a growing population of over 900 and counting with an average home price of just over $421,000.

The land where Brighton exists was annexed by the city from the surrounding rural municipality of Corman Park in 2010. The community is bordered by College Drive to the north, 8th Street East to the south, the neighbourhood of College Park East to the west and southwest and McOrmond Drive to the east.

When completed, Brighton will be a primarily residential community, with some regional commercial development on its north and south sides. As of 2018, the first commercial development was underway, with a movie theatre and other retail businesses joining some retail that predated the development of Brighton. Some office development already exists along 8th Street, again predating Brighton, with increased construction expected shortly.

The community will feature a "neighbourhood village", an area of mixed-use commercial buildings and public space. 55% of off-street parking will be underground, enclosed, covered or within permitted buildings.

The neighbourhood-wide network of pedestrian pathways provides access to open green spaces and pocket parks throughout the community. The regional pathway system encourages walking and cycling, and accessible public transit will provide a viable alternative to driving.

Over 9 kilometres of trails connect the core park to other green spaces, pocket parks and neighbourhood amenities, including potential elementary and high school sites and a future off-leash recreation area.
