Some notes on getting around in Edmonton
Edmonton is based on a grid, avenues run east and west; streets run north and south.

Avenue numbers increase to the north and avenue numbers decrease to the south; street numbers increase to the west and street numbers decrease to the east.

When a street lies between two numbered streets, letters are used, for example, 107A Avenue lies between 107 Avenue and 108 Avenue..

Houses with odd numbers are on the east side of a street or the south side of an avenue. Houses with even numbers are on the west side of a street of the north side of an avenue.

Dropping the last two digits of a house number tells you what two streets or avenues the house lies between, for example 10833 128 St is between 108 Ave and 109 Ave.
