Lake Louise is a hamlet in Alberta, Canada within Improvement District No. 9 Banff(Banff National Park).[3]
Contents
[hide]History[edit]
The hamlet is named for the nearby Lake Louise, which in turn was named after thePrincess Louise Caroline Alberta (1848–1939), the fourth daughter of Queen Victoria, and the wife of John Campbell, the 9th Duke of Argyll, who was the Governor General of Canada from 1878 to 1883.
The hamlet was originally called Laggan, and was a station along the Canadian Pacific Railway route. It was built in 1890.[4] The rail station building was preserved and moved into Heritage Park in Calgary.
Infrastructure[edit]
The hamlet is separated into two communities. The main community, referred to asThe Village is at a lower elevation adjacent to the Trans-Canada Highway (Highway 1). It has a small shopping centre, Samson Mall, which includes a park visitor centre, grocery store, bakery, deli, grill, bar and sporting goods store. The ski area, Lake Louise Mountain Resort, is located across Highway 1. The second community is at a higher elevation and is centered on the Chateau Lake Louise, adjacent to Lake Louise.
The community is also located on Alberta Highway 1A, and just south of the Icefields Parkway.

As of 2001, Lake Louise had a total population of 1,041 living in 273 dwellings.[2] Statistics Canada did not publish a population for Lake Louise from the 2006 census under its urban area or designated place programs. However, its 2006 population is approximately 777 based on data aggregated from the dissemination block level.[5]
