    Real Strategy Market Outlook: Q3 2018 RealStrategy.com R E A L S T R A T E G Y Real Strategy Market Outlook: Q3 2018 The 3rd Quarter of 2018 saw a significant amount of leasing activity in Ottawa by the Federal Government. Showing clear signs that public purse strings have been loosened, the public service has returned to the market place in force while steady demand from the private sector places Ottawa on a path to a balanced market. Greater Ottawa’s overall office availability fell from 10.7% in Q2 2018 to 10.1% continuing a downward trend that started this time last year. Downtown Class C Availability fell sharply by 5.3% due primarily from Nav Canada’s committing to lease all 133,000 sq. ft. of 151 Slater Street last quarter. Class A Availability remained relatively flat at 5.9%, while Class B Availability dropped from 11% to 9.8%; a 4th consecutive quarter of shrinking inventory. Real Strategy understands that significant additional government demand is still to come and expects the A and B Class downtown office space to continue to be absorbed at an increasing pace until the next Federal election expected in the fall of 2019. Downtown Available Rate by Class Greater Ottawa Availability 6,000,000 30 5,000,000 25 4,000,000 20 3,000,000 15 2,000,000 10 1,000,000 5 0 0 RealStrategy.com Largest Downtown Vacancies Total Available 18% 44% 19% 38% 40% 31% 55% 14% Rate: Address 45 O’Connor Street 110 O’Connor Street Constitution Square Killeany Place 473 Albert Street 222-230 Queen 85 Albert Street Constitution Square (I) (III) Total Office Area (sq.

  • Building a Memory
    Building a Memory Reactivating a Lineage of Community Life at Centretown’s 330 Gilmour Street By Emily Jung Essex A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfllment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2020 Emily Jung Essex Abstract Centretown, one of Ottawa’s oldest residential neighbourhoods, has continuously been evolving since its establishment in the late 18th century. The 21st century pressure for densifcation in this now urban mixed-use neighbourhood is increasing the need for community resources, while at the same time pushing them out. Centretown’s vacant and neglected 330 Gilmour Street, the former Ottawa Public School Board Administration Building, provides a place to establish the missing public space within the community. By adaptively reusing all three additions - 1922, 1956 & 1963 - along with new interventions in 2020, Centretown’s newly established ‘Meeting Place’ binds itself to its lineage of intangible social histories as an expression of community memory characterizing each volume into four places - A Place to Be, Gather, Create and Grow. The four places under one roof assist in providing a burgeoning future for community life in Centretown through representing the historic lineage of community memory at the Meeting Place. Thesis Question _ How can representing the lineage of community memory at 330 Gilmour Street provide means for reimagining the future of community life in Centretown? ii Key Words & Definitions Key Words _ Ottawa, Centretown, Interpretation, Adaptive Reuse Community, Social Infrastructure Defnitions _ Lineage _ A linear sequence of growth evolved from the predecessor.
