Nutana Park (sometimes referred to as South Nutana Park) is a mostly residential neighbourhood located in south-central Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. It is a suburban subdivision, consisting mostly of low-density, single detached dwellings. As of 2007, the area is home to 2,748 residents. The neighbourhood is considered a middle-income area, with an average family income of $66,555, an average dwelling value of $257,789 and a home ownership rate of 85.1%. According to MLS data, the average sale price of a home as of 2013 was $356,116.
The most of the land for the Nutana Park neighbourhood was annexed by the city between 1910 and 1919, with the remaining southern piece annexed between 1960 and 1969. According to a 1913 map of registered subdivisions, the name "Nutana Park" was one of many developments in the area, the rest of which went unbuilt. Some of the other subdivisions included University Park, Nutana View, Sterling Park, Alta Vista and Hampton Park. Home building began in the area after World War II, with the greatest activity between 1961 and 1970. The majority of residential units are single-family detached houses, with a small number of semi-detached and apartment units.
Prince Philip School began construction in 1959 and opened in 1960. Another public elementary school, Lorne Haselton School, opened in 1961 but closed in the mid-1980s. The school was named in honour of Dr. L. D. Haselton, a longtime school dentist and board member.
St. James School served the neighbourhood until 2005, when it was closed due to declining enrolment. One famous alumunus of the school is Mike Babcock, the current head coach of the Detroit Red Wings hockey team. After St. James' closure, the francophone École canadienne-française took over the building; it is Saskatoon's only francophone high school. Extensive renovations to the building were completed in 2008.
Nutana Park exists within the federal electoral district of Blackstrap. It is currently represented by Lynne Yelich of the Conservative Party of Canada, first elected in 2000 and re-elected in 2004, 2006 and 2008.
