Gorman is a future neighbourhood in northeast Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. In implementation of the Gorman Community Concept Plan, subdivision and development of the neighbourhood will be guided by a future neighbourhood structure plan (NSP) to be adopted by Edmonton City Council.[6] A 2.9 km light rail transit extension to this neighbourhood is planned but with no timeline or funding.[7]
It is located within Pilot Sound and was originally planned to be developed with community commercial and light industrial park uses within the Pilot Sound Area Structure Plan (ASP).[8]
Gorman is bounded on the west by the Brintnell and Cy Becker neighbourhoods, north and east by Anthony Henday Drive, and south by the Fraser, Kirkness and Ebbers neighbourhoods.[8] [9]
The community is represented by the Horse Hill Community League, established in 1972.[10] [11]
