Friends, family and colleagues gathered at the National Arts Centre Friday to celebrate a milestone for one of Ottawa’s long-standing commercial real estate firms as Merkburn Holdings celebrated five decades of success.
Merkburn launched from William Burnside and Cameron Merkley back in 1969 with Frank Dooher joining later as a partner. The firm started its local portfolio with a small crop of industrial buildings out on Liverpool Court.
