She says it was a new employee who took on the challenge of organizing the event. "Pat Goyeche is a new member of the staff. She has a real interest in history and restoring Abbotsford to its former grandeur. She saw the potential to dress up the old girl and show her off," laughs Bridgewater. Goyeche herself was dressed as the "lady of the house" in a formal, full-length gray suit and large hat with feathers. All the costumes were borrowed from the Ottawa Little The- atre. "A lot of people didn't know about the history here. People were just gush- ing about the house and the dining room," says Goyeche. Goyeche dug into Abbotsford's archives, finding a lot of old, yellowed min- utes books, photos and newspaper clippings that she put on display. Bridge- water says they'll definitely open the doors to this neighbourhood landmark again, as it's a great way to raise awareness about all the seniors programs, courses, clubs and services Abbotsford offers to the seniors community. "I had no idea it was such a popular event," Bridgewater says of Doors Open. "It was a real pleasure to welcome the community and have them rec- ognize all we do now. It was a real treat for all of us," she added. L-R: Pat Goyeche, Debrah Taylor, Zita Overington (long time member) and Selina Neve in front BY JULIE IRETON Visitors to Abbotsford House the first weekend in June may have thought they were in a time warp. Women in Victorian outfits greeted people at the door. Maids in long skirts and hats served homemade scones and stewed rhubarb. Guests sipped tea from china cups in the home's formally set dining room. "People visiting were really interested in the history of Abbotsford house. And they had no idea of all the activities that go on here," says Janice Bridgewater, director at Abbotsford. The house was part of Ottawa's Doors Open event on June 2 and 3. The staff played up the home's history as one of the Glebe's oldest residences. This neo- gothic house was built by Alexander Mutchmor in 1872. He owned a lot of the land in the Glebe, including much of the area Lansdowne Park occupies today. About 200 visitors dropped in while the doors were open. Many were on a tour of other Doors Open sites in the downtown core: venues of architectural, cultural or historical significance were the Army Officer's Mess, the Embassy Kathy and John McConkey in period costumes of Kuwait and the Ottawa Rowing Club..

Phase two began with a brainstorming event on how the community would like to see the build- ings and businesses along Bank Street develop, including the types of uses, de- sign criteria and amenities. A group of residents offered their ideas about the following main issues: types of uses, building height, building location on properties, design guide- lines, parking and transition from commercial use to residential use. This arti- cle provides a summary of what was said. TYPES OF USES There is a strong consensus on the desire to maintain and enhance the vil- lage mainstreet atmosphere of Bank Street. The following characteristics of Bank Street are highly praised: the walkability of the street, the ability to form personal relationships with merchants, the opportunity to have informal en- counters along the way, and the variety of small retail stores that provide unique goods and services responding to the daily needs of residents. Participants recommended development with a mix of uses, including retail on the ground floor with office and residential uses above. They wanted to en- courage the small independently owned shops because they provide a shop- Art in the Park: ping experience different from that in a suburban mall and help create the identity of the Glebe. the sun shines after all!

  • Downtown LRT Stations
    Downtown LRT Stations Connecting Downtown Ottawa To address thebottleneckoftransitserviceinthedowntownthe City is moving forward with the Ottawa Light Rail Transit (OLRT) project.To ensure that the downtown core will be effectively served it was determined that 5 of the 13 stations be located within downtown Ottawa, each bringing a unique contribution to Ottawa’s transit system and its connections to important downtown destinations. When choosing where to put the downtown stations and their entrances, the City looked towards two guiding principles: • Which locations will service the maximum number of riders possible? • Are those locations technically feasible within our project budget? Campus Station The Campus Station is located near the current OC Transpo bus station and will be integrated with the University of Ottawa campus, Colonel By Drive and the historic Rideau Canal. This station will service the Sandy Hill neighbourhood, as well as the Elgin Street business district and the Golden Triangle neighbourhood via the Corktown Footbridge. Rideau Station Rideau Station is an underground station located on Rideau Street and will provide access to the historic ByWard Market, the National Gallery, the US Embassy, office buildings, retail shops, and restaurants on Rideau Street and in the Byward Market, as well as destinations such as nearby hotels and the Ottawa Convention Centre. It is also the location of the proposed Arts Hub, bringing together the Ottawa Art Gallery, new theatre space and a number of important local arts organizations. Downtown East Station The Downtown East station is an underground station located on Queen Street between Bank and Metcalfe, just two short blocks from the Parliament Hill grounds, including the Peace Tower, House of Commons, the Library of Parliament, Veterans Affairs and Justice Canada.
