The NCC, in collaboration with the Canada Housing and Mortgage Corporation (CMHC), is seeking a proponent for the construction of residential housing at 1460 Riverside Drive, near Alta Vista Drive in Ottawa.
The development land for lease is a vacant lot of 0.89 ha and has the potential for over 220 housing units in an urban living environment focused on active transportation.
Its strategic location near the downtown core, close to public transit networks and Hurdman station, universities, retail, hospitals and green spaces along the Rideau River, promises an attractive living environment for future residents.
The zoning is focused on transit-oriented development; this site will thus meet the growing need for housing near downtown Ottawa while creating a vibrant and well-connected community.
This business opportunity at 1460 Riverside Drive is open to all Canadian proponents in the construction, investment and real estate industries. Play a key role in improving housing access in the National Capital Region while receiving solid institutional and financial support.
The NCC-owned property is being offered for lease in collaboration with the CMHC as part of the Federal Lands Initiative, which aims to create innovative housing for Canadians. The property is part of the Canada Public Land Bank, an initiative that makes public land available for housing construction. The NCC is committed to supporting the Government of Canada’s efforts to identify underutilized land that can be developed to increase housing availability, including affordable housing, in the National Capital Region.
