Pleasantview History

Pleasantview was formerly known as Martin Estate, after David Martin, one of the first settlers in the area. The neighbourhood was renamed in honour of its topographical feature (the hill with pleasant views) after the neighbourhood's subdivision in the mid-1900s. Part of Pleasantview has been part of Edmonton City since 1914, while the remaining part became part of the city after World War II. About 22% of the neighbourhood's residences were built in the mid-1940s. Most of these earlier residences were later replaced with newer homes. Majority of the residences (46%) were built during the 1960s, and the remaining (22%) were built during the 1970s. Pleasantview is bordered to the north by 61 Avenue, east by Calgary Trail, south by 51 Avenue and west by 111 Street.
