Residents here take great pride in their neighbourhood and work hard to preserve its authenticity. Highlights of the area include the iconic Alexander Circle fountain (picture Paris\u2019s Places des Vosges, but right here in Edmonton) and Government House, a brick and limestone Jacobean Revival building that gave Glenora its first taste of exclusivity in 1909.<\/p>\n
