The "Centre for the Arts Campus" (formerly Jasper Place Campus) of MacEwan College is located in the north west corner of West Jasper Place.
As a bit of trivia, during the 1980s and 1990s, Edmonton Transit System buses travelling out to West Edmonton Mall and the neighbourhoods west of 170 Street showed a destination of "West Jasper Place". This meant a bus route with a destination west of the old Jasper Place townsite, rather than a bus route with the neighborhood of West Jasper Place as the destination. Bus routes terminating in the townsite area usually showed a destination of "Jasper Place".
