Shepard is a residential subdivision on the eastern periphery of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Until 2007, it was an unincorporated hamlet and previously part of Rocky View County. It was annexed by the City of Calgary in July 2007. A rail station was built at Shepard by the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1884. The post office opened for four months in 1903 and then reopened from January 1, 1905 until March 8, 1966.
It was named after one of the partners of Shepard and Langdon, railway contractors, and remains primarily a residential subdivision with some commercial businesses; it also has its own community hall. It is physically separated from other communities by an industrial area (Shepard Industrial), by undeveloped land and by Race City Speedway. There are no schools in the immediate vicinity, with area children bused to other parts of the city.
