Real Estate listings near Lister Centre

Lister Centre, known for most of its history as Lister Hall, is the primary student residence at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. As of 2008, it was the largest university residence complex in Canada, housing approximately 1,800 students during the academic year. Residents are primarily first- and second-year undergraduate students. The complex comprises four residence towers: Kelsey Hall and Henday Hall (both built in 1962), Mackenzie Hall (completed in 1968), and Schäffer Hall (completed in 2003). The towers are named after Canadian explorers Henry Kelsey, Anthony Henday, and Alexander Mackenzie, and American explorer Mary Schäffer. The complex itself is named after Reg Lister, a University employee from 1911 to 1960, who had served as Superintendent of Residences. Each of the four towers is 10 to 12 storeys tall, with each floor divided into three wings of single- or double-occupancy, dormitory-style rooms. The towers are connected to a central building that contains a cafeteria and other food services, a variety of student facilities, a conference centre, and a gymnasium. The complex is managed by University of Alberta Residence Services through two Resident Assistants (RAs) on each floor, and students are represented by the Lister Hall Students' Association (LHSA) through an elected Floor Coordinator (FC) on every floor. The Lister Hall Students' Association and Residence Services have functioned separate from one another since the 2012-2013 academic year.
