Significant changes to the city’s homebuilding approval process will go to council later this month as the mayor makes housing one of his priorities for 2026.
A new 28-storey residential building could be built across the street from the Ottawa Public Library’s new central branch at LeBreton Flats, with a proposal for the Laurier Avenue site awaiting city approval.
After a challenging approval process, work is underway on the first phase of a new development on Baseline Road that will eventually see three highrise towers built on the site of a former strip mall that contained the original Lone Star Texas Grill.
