107 Avenue is a major arterial road in west-central Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It serves Edmonton's west side industrial district, neighbourhoods of the former Town of Jasper Place (amalgamated with Edmonton in 1964), the multicultural area north of Downtown Edmonton, Commonwealth Stadium, and the adjacent park & ride transit centre. The portion between 95 and 116 Streets has been dubbed the "Avenue of Nations", as immigrants from around the world live in this area, including African Nations, Arabic Nations, Cambodia, China, First Nations, Italy, Japan, Latin America, Poland, Ukraine, and Vietnam.[2] Also, Chinatown lies just south of Avenue of Nations. 107 Avenue changed its name from 101 Street to 107A Avenue. 107A Avenue changed its name from 92 Street to Stadium Road. Stadium Road changed its name from 112 Avenue to 86 Street (Fort Road).
