Iron Horse Park in Airdrie, Alberta just north of Calgary, may be required to re-locate in 2016 when its lease up on the real estate it leases from the city of Airdrie.
While the City of Airdrie is going to need the parks site for other city expansion in 6 years, Airdrie administration is trying to give Iron Horse Park as much notice as possible.

This has been an interesting year so far with plenty of opportunities for Seller and Buyer alike.
