If you’ve run into me lately, you were doubtlessly entreated to some words about apartment buildings in Ottawa. I can’t help it, the topic has been rolling around in my mind for a decade or so.

In any event, thanks to some time at the Westboro Brainery and the Underhill Colloquium, I’ve dedicated a little more time to these buildings. This has included trips to the Land Registry Office, City of Ottawa Archives, and, of course, my beloved Ottawa Room. This is to say nothing of the regular walks I’m always on.

Sometimes being focused on individual buildings is a a whole lot of fun: it’s the approach that I’ve been taking to the topic from the beginning. Collecting some data is probably important too, however. While I’m interested in apartment buildings in general, I’ve been focusing lately on the Depression and the general lay of the land up to the end of the Second World War.

To this end, I’ve transcribed the name and address of each apartment building listed in the 1945 edition of Might’s Ottawa City Directory. I’ve also assigned them to a neighbourhood or area category. There are doubtlessly some inaccuracies and typos in there now, but I’ll make sure to take care of them as time goes on.

Eventually, I’ll also add more information, such as the number of units, construction (or conversion) date, any other names it may have, whether it’s still standing or still and apartment, and more specific neighbourhood identifiers. My sense is that most of the buildings in the list are actually quite small and many are actually conversions of larger homes. I’ve not really looked into it enough yet, but it seems to be the case the the majority aren’t what we tend to envision: something along the lines of a 6+ unit purpose-built apartment. This isn’t to say that those weren’t common in 1945: far from it.

For now, I’ve placed them with the following (admittedly broad) neighbourhoods:

  1. Centretown1Defined by Gloucester (N), Bronson (W), Rideau Canal (E), Queensway (S). I plan to later break it down into Centretown “proper”, Golden Triangle, and the eastern portion of Chinatown.
  2. Downtown2Defined by the Ottawa River (N), Bronson (W), Rideau Canal (E), and Laurier (S). This can be broken down to some degree into portions, such as the old Upper Town and Midtown. “Downtown” has been subject to much shifting over the years.
  3. Sandy Hill3Defined by the south side of Rideau (N), Rideau Canal (W), Rideau River (E), and Mann Avenue (S). This will be further divided into Sandy Hill North, Sandy Hill South, and the University of Ottawa.
  4. Lowertown4Defined by Ottawa River (N), Rideau Canal/Entry Bay (W), Rideau River (E), north side of Rideau street (S). This will be further divided into The Byward Market, Lowertown West, Lowertown East, and Macdonald Gardens.
  5. The Glebe5Defined by Queensway (N), Dow’s Lake (W), Rideau Canal (E & S). This will be further divided into The Glebe and the Glebe Annex (much to my chagrin that west of Bronson didn’t get to create/retain its own identity).
  6. Ottawa South6Defined by the Rideau Canal (N), Bronson (W), Avenue Road (E), and the Rideau River (S).
  7. Ottawa East7Defined by Mann Avenue (N), Rideau Canal (W), Rideau River (E), and Avenue Road/Rideau River (S).
  8. Eastview (Vanier)8Defined by the borders of the former City of Vanier.
  9. Dalhousie9This one’s defined a little fuzzier, but it’s roughly in line with the Dalhousie Community Association. Roughly, Ottawa River (N), O-Train Tracks (W), Bronson (E), and Carling (W). I intend to further divide into something along the lines of LeBreton Flats, Little Italy, Nanny Goat Hill, Chinatown, and Mount Sherwood. This will likely change when it happens though.
  10. Hintonburg10Defined by Ottawa River (N), Holland Avenue (W), O-Train Tracks (E), and the Queensway (S). This will be further divided into Hintonburg and Mechanicsville.
  11. Wellington West11Defined as by Ottawa River (N), Island Park Drive (W), Holland Avenue (E), and the Queensway (S). This one’s also somewhat fuzzy, it did not experience much apartment construction until after the Second World War, so refinements will come later.
  12. New Edinburgh12Defined by the Ottawa River (N), Rideau River (W), Lisgar Road/Maple/Acacia (E), and the north side of Beechwood Avenue (S).
  13. Rockcliffe Park13Defined by the borders of the former Village of Rockcliffe Park.

I plowed the data into an Excel spreadsheet and have them displayed here using the TablePress plugin so you can search and sort if you’re feeling like that’s something fun to do.

If you’re keen for some basic numbers, there were 685 apartments listed in the directory, with 593 of them being named. There were 256 in Centretown, 121 in Sandy Hill, 83 in Lowertown, 68 Downtown, 56 in Dalhousie, 51 in The Glebe, 15 in Hintonburg, 11 in New Edinburgh, 10 in Ottawa South, 7 in Ottawa East, 5 in Eastview, 1 in Rockcliffe Park, and 1 in Wellington West. Here’s a pie chart.

I like pie and it seems to be the case that, for once, a pie chart is appropriate. Centretown had 37% of the city's apartments in 1945.

Notes

Notes
1 Defined by Gloucester (N), Bronson (W), Rideau Canal (E), Queensway (S). I plan to later break it down into Centretown “proper”, Golden Triangle, and the eastern portion of Chinatown.
2 Defined by the Ottawa River (N), Bronson (W), Rideau Canal (E), and Laurier (S). This can be broken down to some degree into portions, such as the old Upper Town and Midtown. “Downtown” has been subject to much shifting over the years.
3 Defined by the south side of Rideau (N), Rideau Canal (W), Rideau River (E), and Mann Avenue (S). This will be further divided into Sandy Hill North, Sandy Hill South, and the University of Ottawa.
4 Defined by Ottawa River (N), Rideau Canal/Entry Bay (W), Rideau River (E), north side of Rideau street (S). This will be further divided into The Byward Market, Lowertown West, Lowertown East, and Macdonald Gardens.
5 Defined by Queensway (N), Dow’s Lake (W), Rideau Canal (E & S). This will be further divided into The Glebe and the Glebe Annex (much to my chagrin that west of Bronson didn’t get to create/retain its own identity).
6 Defined by the Rideau Canal (N), Bronson (W), Avenue Road (E), and the Rideau River (S).
7 Defined by Mann Avenue (N), Rideau Canal (W), Rideau River (E), and Avenue Road/Rideau River (S).
8 Defined by the borders of the former City of Vanier.
9 This one’s defined a little fuzzier, but it’s roughly in line with the Dalhousie Community Association. Roughly, Ottawa River (N), O-Train Tracks (W), Bronson (E), and Carling (W). I intend to further divide into something along the lines of LeBreton Flats, Little Italy, Nanny Goat Hill, Chinatown, and Mount Sherwood. This will likely change when it happens though.
10 Defined by Ottawa River (N), Holland Avenue (W), O-Train Tracks (E), and the Queensway (S). This will be further divided into Hintonburg and Mechanicsville.
11 Defined as by Ottawa River (N), Island Park Drive (W), Holland Avenue (E), and the Queensway (S). This one’s also somewhat fuzzy, it did not experience much apartment construction until after the Second World War, so refinements will come later.
12 Defined by the Ottawa River (N), Rideau River (W), Lisgar Road/Maple/Acacia (E), and the north side of Beechwood Avenue (S).
13 Defined by the borders of the former Village of Rockcliffe Park.
