First, we will talk about the nice and lovely Legacy Community, its landscape, and amenities, and then we will explain how Chaparral Compounding Pharmacy – Remedy’sRx can help you attain your ultimate health goals for you, your spouse, kids, seniors and even your pets!
Legacy – The New Destination Community!
Legacy is a relatively new community and residential community, developed by WestCreek Developments, and that is located in southeast Calgary, south of Walden Community, southwest of Wolf Willow Community, and Fish Creek Provincial Park (10 minutes), and west of the Bow River.
Its main access to other parts of Calgary is 210 Avenue SE which connects it with other Calgary communities such as Walden (to the north of Legacy) and Creekstone (west of Legacy) communities, and Macleod Trail. That’s another reason to call it the destination community since there is no through traffic to go elsewhere, which is fantastic since it decreases the amount of car traffic, making it quieter and family-friendly!
Legacy’s construction began in 2001, and the sales of its wonderful condos, townhomes, semi-attached homes, duplexes, laned, front drive and luxury homes began in 2013.
Legacy Community boomed in a short time. Its population in 2016 was around 2,315, while in 2019, it nearly tripled to 6,420. Although there is not much data about the current population, we can safely say that it is around the 8,000 mark!
A nice fact is that all the streets of Legacy Community begin with the word “Legacy”, except for some five streets that are located around the two northwest plazas in Legacy Community.
Schools
Legacy has one high school, All Saints High School, in addition to another three planned schools (K-9, junior high and elementary).

Legacy Community in Calgary has lots of useful and nice amenities. The amenities include:

- Legacy Environmental Reserve: over 300 acres of nature’s beauty! Nice trails to hike and bike, and beautiful scenery for a nice and long snowshoeing journey in the winter!

- And a nice community garden called Legacy Community Garden. It gives the opportunity for Legacy’s residents who are into gardening to have their small gardening spot, subject to being a member in good standing with the Legacy Residents Association. You can find more information regarding the garden here.
- There is also a Twitter account (@LegacyCalgary) that constantly tweets the latest developments in the community and a Twitter hashtag (#LegacyYYC) if you want to broadcast about specific topics of interest to the Legacy Community.
How can Chaparral Compounding Pharmacy – Remedy’sRx be of Service to the Legacy Community?
Although Legacy Community is a fabulous community, it is underserved when it comes to healthcare and, especially, community and compounding pharmacies.
Chaparral Compounding Pharmacy is a compounding, independent, and community pharmacy.

That means that we can customize all of your medications according to your therapeutic needs.
For example, sometimes you may need a different dose, strength, or different capsule size, or different administration method (suspension instead of pills), a nicer flavour!, or temporarily unavailable over-the-counter medications (such as Children’s Tylenol and Advil that were unavailable for a good amount of time these days.)
We can compound and prepare the following:
- Suspensions
- Syrups
- Ointments
- Suppositories
- Gummies
