NCC needs to do better

BIG TREES of Kitchissippi has joined with the Mechanicsville Community Association in urging the National Capital Commission to withdraw plans to create an "Embassy Row" on a piece of land that is currently open forest and grasses near the north end of Parkdale Ave. Here is a joint media release issued Feb. 7.

Below is a satellite image showing the land as it exists now. To view all documents related to this proposed land development, which requires an Official Plan amendment and rezoning by the City of Ottawa, visit this page from the city's website.
