History

Northeast Edmonton has a rich history. It began as the town of Beverly and was not amalgamated into Edmonton until 1961, at which point the town had just over 9,000 residents. The town was initially established to support the farming community and coal mining industry. Beverly remains a community within Northeast Edmonton. Read more about Beverly’s history here.
