Wellington Village is a vibrant Ottawa neighbourhood bounded by Island Park Drive to the west, Scott Street to the north, Holland Avenue to the east and the Queensway to the south. Tree lined streets, red brick facades, great schools, and a main street of independent businesses, food shops and artisans have helped turn this area into one of Ottawa’s most enjoyable communities. Most amenities are within walking distance, with plenty of green spaces for all residents to enjoy and easy access to the Ottawa River. The new LRT station at Tunney’s Pasture connects Wellington Village to the downtown and beyond in minutes.
