Aberdeen

Aberdeen on December 27th, 2016. Taken from Mount Dufferin Park.
Aberdeen is one of Kamloops’ most popular neighbourhoods and is still growing with the new Harrison Heights and West Highlands subdivisions. Due to it’s higher elevation, it’s a few degrees colder than downtown and that means a bit more snow. Many of the homes have excellent views as well.

Plans and Projects
The City of Kamloops has published an area plan for Aberdeen, which gives an in depth look at residential and commercial development plans. The Edinburgh neighbourhood was recently announced as a 1600 unit expansion.
Pacific Ridge Estates, Stirling Heights, and Harrison View are a few of the new developments. (Feel free to list others in the comments.)
The new casino was the most recent large scale commercial project. It was a major renovation of the old Rona site. Down the road at the corner of Hugh Allan Dr. and Pacific Way, the new Marriott Hotel was recently built with space remaining to build another facility there as well.
Hue Hotel was completed in 2019 at 1529 Hugh Allan Dr. At 6 floors, it’s the tallest building in the neighbourhood.
A new car wash and 50,000 square foot self storage facility is being built on the 1.33 acre lot at the intersection of Hugh Allan Drive and Pacific Way.
Outdoor Recreation
West Highlands Park is a new park built around the West Highlands subdivision that is being built on what was formerly the Aberdeen Golf Course.
There are several cross-country mountain bike trails behind Pineview Valley, which is the neighbourhood west of Aberdeen.
