River's Edge, briefly known as River Alder, is a developing neighbourhood in west Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. ^[5] Subdivision and development of the neighbourhood will be guided by the Riverview Neighbourhood 3 (River's Edge) Neighbourhood Structure Plan (NSP), which was adopted by Edmonton City Council on September 22, 2015. ^[2] It is located within the Riverview area of Edmonton and was originally considered Riverview Neighbourhood 3 within the Riverview Area Structure Plan (ASP). ^[5] River's Edge is bounded on the north by The Uplands, northeast by Anthony Henday Drive, east and south by the North Saskatchewan River valley, southwest by Grandisle, and west by Stillwater. ^{[1] [5]}

The five future neighbourhoods in Riverview were originally named by Edmonton's Naming Committee on June 25, 2015, with Riverview Neighbourhood 3 being named River Alder. ^[6] The developers of River Alder and two other adjacent future neighbourhoods subsequently appealed three of neighbourhood names to city council's executive committee. ^[7] The executive committee overturned the naming decisions for the three neighbourhoods and River Alder was renamed River's Edge. ^[8]
