Project Coordinator Intern

Calgary Municipal Land Corporation (CMLC) is a master planner, a developer, and a project manager. We build parks and pathways as carefully and earnestly as we build relationships with developers, community partners, residents and so many others. We are a sales and marketing force, a strategic land planner and a passionate community-builder. We curate public art and neighbourhood programming. We liaise, consult, cooperate and engage. We listen. We learn. We lead. We are placemakers.

BACKGROUND

CMLC was incorporated in 2007 as a wholly owned subsidiary of the City of Calgary to implement and execute the Rivers District Community Revitalization Plan — a public infrastructure program approved by the City of Calgary and the Province of Alberta to kick-start Calgary’s urban renewal and unlock the tremendous value of several hundreds of acres at the river’s edge.

Since then, CMLC has invested over $400 million into the delivery of the East Village master plan, which envisions a mixed-use, high-density urban community that will be home to 11,500 residents. To date, CMLC has laid the foundation for East Village’s future and attracted nearly $3 billion in planned, private investment. New public spaces, roads, sidewalks, parks and community gardens have been completed, and more than 4,000 residents have moved into the community over the past few years.

In 2018, CMLC completed the master plan for east Victoria Park, which imagines a 20-year vision for Calgary’s Culture + Entertainment District—a vibrant, high-density, mixed-use community that draws on the spirit of entertainment that resides in its DNA, as well as its natural surroundings. Since that time, CMLC has led the delivery of more than $650M in city-building projects and infrastructure improvements including the newly expanded BMO Centre expansion, the 17 th

Avenue Extension and Stampede Station rebuild and will soon initiate a range of district infrastructure projects as part of the future Scotia Place event centre. In 2025, CMLC initiated construction on the $660M transformation of Arts Commons and Olympic Plaza as part of the City of Calgary’s broader downtown revitalization.

CMLC Is also expanding its mandate to include the development of Transit-Oriented Communities beyond the Rivers District, supporting The City of Calgary’s housing strategy by master planning communities, removing barriers to development, and engaging private housing to deliver much-needed housing for our growing city.
