Northwest Edmonton Real Estate:
Community of Wellington
Nestled in Northwest Edmonton's established district, Wellington’s history dates back to its annexation by the city in 1913.

Bordered by 142nd Street to the west, 137th Ave to the north, 127th Street to the east, and 132nd Ave to the south, Wellington takes its name from Arthur Wellesley (1769-1852), the first Duke of Wellington. Renowned for leading the British forces to victory over Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo.
