Rosslyn Houses for Sale - Edmonton
Although the Rosslyn community was incorporated into Edmonton in the early 1900's, the land was mostly open tracts and undeveloped space until around the middle of the century. The discovery of oil to the south and the demand for greater coal mining also drove the rail lines to expand and generate further employment. Rosslyn was eventually built up and zoned, and this established community includes living space as well as commercial and industrial land.
