The Beltline housing market is an urban, high density district with a mix of residential real estate, office, retail, and public buildings and 11 decades of history. Buildings from each of these decades still stand in Connaught and the surrounding communities. In fact, the majority of the heritage sites in the City of Calgary are located in the Beltline. The rich heritage in the area adds value to all of the Beltline neighbourhoods. In 2006, the community undertook comprehensive heritage research and compiled detailed information on every historic property in the district.
