Collectively known as South Elgin or New Elgin — were substantially developed through the 1990s and early 2000s, with Elkay Developments playing a key role. Lots here are described as half-acre "Gross Density," which typically works out to around 15,000 square feet per lot rather than a full 21,000 — the gross density figure accounts for street width, sidewalks and trails. So while lots run smaller than the half-acre label suggests, the neighbourhood still feels spacious. 

Streets are deliberately circuitous, often ending in cul-de-sacs, a design that discourages commuter shortcuts and promotes calmer, safer streets for residents. Notably, there's no through-road connecting 20th to 24th without using an arterial route like 128th or 140th Street — a meaningful lifestyle difference for families with children, dog owners, or anyone who walks regularly, compared to a conventional street grid. A network of well-used forest trails links the neighbourhoods, allowing kids to walk safely to Elgin Secondary. 

With fewer trees than Old Elgin, this area tends to be sunnier, and buried utility lines mean fewer power outages. There are no notable streams here either, so tree protection and drainage setbacks are less of a concern — though, as with any property, it's still worth investigating rights-of-way, particularly if you're planning to install a pool. While less "estate" in character than Old Elgin, New Elgin still offers impressive executive-style homes in a family-oriented setting, close to schools and within walking distance of Ocean Park Village.
