Ennis and Alma's new home in '‘Riverton’

In fact, Fort Macleod generally stands in for ‘Riverton’, where Alma has realised her dream of moving to the apartment above the Laundromat in the 1906 JC Edgar Building, 2422 3rd Avenue at 25th Street.

And it’s here that the fragile equilibrium is disturbed when Ennis gets a postcard from Jack with a photo of Brokeback, to say he’ll be passing through.
