Fort Garry is a community area and neighbourhood of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, located in the southwestern part of the city, south of the district of Fort Rouge and east of the Tuxedo area. It comprises parts of the city wards of River Heights - Fort Garry, Fort Rouge - East Fort Garry, Waverley West, and St. Norbert - Seine River.[2]

Once the Rural Municipality of Fort Garry, it was named for the historical fortification in downtown Winnipeg known as Upper Fort Garry, although the nearest (northernmost) point of the district (at Jubilee Avenue and Lilac Street) is 3.75 km (2.33 mi) from the site of the fort.
