Explore how Bisset 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on the map: the gold fill is the boundary in effect for the selected time period, dashed outlines show every earlier superseded shape from prior eras, red pins are linked structures built in that era, and purple pins are sites.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.
Like all of the 27 neighbourhoods of Mill Woods, Bisset's design objective is to provide for an efficient flow of traffic while minimizing its disruptive and hazardous effects. A number of strategically place pathways promote pedestrian and bicycle travel within the neighbourhood. Perhaps because of the large number of apartment dwellings, the demographic profile of Bisset is different form that of a typical Mill Woods neighbourhood: Bisset hosts a comparatively high proportion of single-adult households. Civic ward: Sspomitapi. District: Mill Woods and Meadows. City boundary records effective 1981-10-01.
