    Yes, it was. In the fifties, until 1958, the roads weren't paved , there were no sidewalks , no water or sewer systems. That year, Calgary annexed Montgomery and it was able to finally have those things. Our house was built in 1951, and my folks paid $6,000 for it. Its no longer there,and I went back through the neighborhood a few years ago, and it really hasn't changed too much, and many of the original small homes are still there. It seemed a long way from the city in those days.

    How interesting.. I grew up in the hamlet of Montgomery just below the hill from 1951-1958 , moving to the new community of Haysboro with my family at the young of age of 7. Of course I wouldn't have known about this epic groundbreaking at the time, but its very important to me nevertheless..thirteen years later, I graduated from U of C in Business. It may not seem important now but I believe videos like this have long-lasting value, at the very least. Most of those people are dead.
