Seton is a suburb
an residential/commercial/institutional community currently under construction in southeast Calgary, Alberta. It is located directly south of Auburn Bay
and east of Cranston. Its boundaries are presently Deerfoot Trail
to the west, Seton Blvd. to the north, and an as-yet unbuilt extension of 52 St. S.E. to the east. Its southern boundary is defined by a proposed, currently unnamed arterial road. The community is currently represented on Calgary City Council
by Ward 12 Alderman Shane Keating.
Seton, when completed, will include a mixture of residential and business development, and will be served by a proposed southeast leg of the city's C-Train
system, but it will primarily be the location of the proposed 44 acres (178,061.8 m²) South Health Campus, which will include a major hospital for the region.
