Federal redevelopment of Confederation Heights: Get in on the ground floor

On the edge of Old Ottawa South, there are several important federal government buildings like the blue mirrored Canada Post’s headquarters, the former CBC heritage building, as well as Vincent Massey Park and Hog’s Back Park.

It is important to note that the Confederation Heights area is located five kilometres south of Ottawa’s downtown core, and totals approximately 188 hectares/465 acres.

The site under development is bound by the Rideau River to the north and west, Data Centre Road and Sawmill Creek to the east, and Brookfield Road to the south. Property owners on and adjacent to the study area include the Government of Canada, the National Capital Commission, Health Canada, Canada Post, the City of Ottawa, and CN Rail.

You will have the opportunity to make your voice heard on the three redevelopment options being put forward at a November 23 interactive workshop. If you’re not able to attend in person, there is also an online option for you to provide your feedback. For more information and to register for the in-person workshop on November 23, 2023 go to the Canada Lands Company website. There are two sessions that day presenting the same information, choose either noon – 3 p.m. or 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. option.
