Bergman was one neighbourhood that made up the area called Beverly. After 1910 rich coal seams were discovered and coal mining spurred development.
Explore how Bergman fits on the map: the gold fill is the boundary in effect for the selected time period, dashed outlines show every earlier superseded shape from prior eras, red pins are linked structures built in that era, and purple pins are sites. Use the time period buttons below the map to explore the neighbourhood over time. Boundary history is documented in Stories.
In 1913 the area was incorporated as the Village of Beverly and in 1914 became a town. In 1961 Beverly amalgamated with the City of Edmonton to later be divided into neighbourhoods including Bergman. Character of Bergman is created from two distinct periods of construction; one very grid like, and the other curvilinear with cul de sac street patterns creating a very unique neighbourhood. Civic ward: Métis. District: North Central. City boundary records effective 1981-10-01.
