It is a little after 7 a.m. and a nurse coming off a 12-hour night shift at the University of Alberta Hospital steps out onto 112 Street, badge still clipped to her scrubs. She is not waiting for a bus or circling a parking lot: her building is close enough that she is home, showered and asleep before the day shift finishes handover. That trade, a shorter commute for a premium address, is what the rental buildings near Health Sciences\/Jubilee Station are actually selling.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Health Sciences\/Jubilee Station sits on Edmonton’s Capital Line at 114 Street and 83 Avenue, on the University of Alberta’s main campus, and it puts University of Alberta Hospital staff, Cross Cancer Institute staff and Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium staff and performers within a short, direct ride or walk of work, along with the Garneau, Belgravia and McKernan neighbourhoods around it. This guide covers the best rental buildings near Health Sciences\/Jubilee Station for that group specifically, the people working the hospital’s shifts rather than attending classes on the campus next door; a separate liv.rent guide covers general student housing near the University of Alberta.<\/p>\n

First time renting in Edmonton? liv.rent’s user guide for renters<\/a> walks through searching, verifying a listing and applying safely before you sign anything.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Health Sciences\/Jubilee Station is a ground-level stop on Edmonton’s Capital Line, at 114 Street and 83 Avenue, and it also serves as the southern terminus of the Metro Line toward NAIT\/Blatchford Market, according to the City of Edmonton’s own LRT station listing<\/a>. An enclosed pedway, which opened in June 2013, connects the platform directly to the Walter C. Mackenzie Health Sciences Centre and University of Alberta Hospital, so staff and patients can skip the outdoor walk through a Prairie winter.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n One stop south on the same line, McKernan\/Belgravia Station serves the McKernan and Belgravia neighbourhoods at 114 Street and 76 Avenue, a direct, no-transfer ride from Health Sciences\/Jubilee. The Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium sits a few blocks north at 87 Avenue and 114 Street, and the Cross Cancer Institute is a short walk east on University Avenue, at 11560 University Avenue, according to Alberta Health Services, so schedules built around any of the three sites still line up with this same stretch of track.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For more on how Edmonton’s inner neighbourhoods compare, see liv.rent’s neighbourhood guides<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Edmonton’s Southwest sector, which covers Garneau, Belgravia, McKernan and the blocks around Health Sciences\/Jubilee Station, had the highest average unfurnished one-bedroom rent of any Edmonton sector in September 2026, at $1,345, against a city-wide average of $1,254, according to liv.rent’s September 2026 Calgary and Edmonton rent report<\/a>. The Southwest sector averaged more than Edmonton overall, though rents for individual buildings near the station vary.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Edmonton’s overall rental vacancy rate was 3.8% in 2025, within the market’s estimated balanced range of 3.5% to 6.0%, according to the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s 2026 Mid-Year Rental Market Update<\/a>, published June 9, 2026. A vacancy rate in that range generally leaves renters some room to compare buildings and negotiate, even in a premium sector like the Southwest.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n liv.rent currently lists four rental buildings within walking distance of Health Sciences\/Jubilee Station, and three are strong enough matches to make this list on their own merits: University Tower Apartments, Windsor Park Plaza Lofts and Garneau Towers. The four buildings after them are established options in Garneau, Belgravia and McKernan that are not yet on liv.rent’s platform. Together, the seven split into the three groups of renters this station actually serves: overnight hospital staff who want the shortest possible walk, daytime hospital and Cross Cancer Institute staff who want an established neighbourhood, and anyone willing to trade one LRT stop for more space or a lower rent.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nWhere is Health Sciences\/Jubilee Station and what does it connect to?<\/h2>\n
