10 Minute Walk to the Center of Downtown Ottawa

Finishing day-to-day errands is easy with all the essentials within a short walking distance; multiple grocery stores are nearby, and attractions such as Parliament Hill, Confederation Park or the Ottawa River. With a perfect 100 bike score, the absolute best way to get around quickly is to choose one of Centretown’s friendly cycling paths; scenic trails will help you reach the local universities quickly, or you can choose to bike along the Rideau Canal for beautiful views of the city.

Living in the heart of downtown means you’ll have access to a number of OC Transpo bus routes to help you get around. There’s a convenient bus stop located outside your door near the corner of James/Gilmour Street and Bank Street that will give you access to the local community. If you prefer driving, follow Bank Street down to the Queensway for a short commute across the larger city of Ottawa.

  • Public Transit

    With a convenient bus stop located along Bank Street, you’ll have immediate access to routes 6 and 7 to explore the immediate area. If you’re eager to get further downtown then a short walk will lead you to routes 5, 9, 11, 12 and 14.

  • Walking

    Living in this Ottawa apartment rental means you’re in the heart of downtown and everything it has to offer. You’ll be able to walk to all of the nearby grocery stores, Carlton University or University of Ottawa, and amazing entertainment options such as Confederation Park or the Ottawa River.

  • Cycling

    The Centretown community is filled with bike-friendly paths that can connect you to scenic trails along the Ottawa River, Rideau Canal, or Victoria Island. Students will love being less than 15 minutes biking to the University of Ottawa and 5 minutes to Carlton University.

  • Driving

    Car-drivers have access to a number of major roadways – Bank Street, Elgin Street or Bronson Avenue – that will help you get around the downtown area easily. For residents looking to commute out of the downtown core, living a couple blocks from the Queensway means you’ll be able to reach the city outskirts quickly.
