The real estate development and investment firm Colonnade BridgePort and the Fiera Real Estate CORE Fund have broken ground on Junction Central, a mixed-use residential community in Ottawa.
The new project is located on a 4.9-acre site located next to Ottawa’s Tremblay LRT station and the Trans-Canada Hwy/417 East. Junction Central will feature two residential towers, Linq and Connex, encompassing 498 rental units ranging from studios to three-bedroom suites. Residents will be able to access a rooftop terrace featuring a dedicated dog run and communal spaces, along with an EV parking infrastructure and a large, secure bicycle room.
The project will also feature ground-floor retail and public spaces designed to support a pedestrian-oriented environment. Junction Central is being designed to meet LEED Silver certification.
“Through thoughtful and deliberate planning, we’re transforming an underutilized site into a mixed-use community strategically supported by existing transportation infrastructure,” said Kelly Rhodenizer, senior vice president of development at Colonnade BridgePort. “Junction Central is designed to integrate housing and public space in a way that supports daily activity while contributing to the long-term revitalization of the area.”
