The Kerby Centre (a major drop-in centre for seniors) was planned to be relocated to a location beside this LRT station by 2017 from its current location in downtown Calgary,[6] but this plan was later dropped in favour of considering other locations.[7] As of spring 2023, new residential development is underway north of Bow Trail.
