A little History about LEES AVE. (via Wikipedia) – Lees Avenue is both a road and a neighbourhood in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The area lies in the narrow stretch between the Rideau Canal and Rideau River south of Sandy Hill and the Queensway and is part of Old Ottawa East. The neighbourhood is dominated by five large apartment buildings, some of the largest in Ottawa. These buildings range from low cost to moderate cost and mostly house new immigrants, students and young professionals. Across the Rideau River to the east Hurdman is a more recently built such area.
Prior to Ottawa East’s annexation in 1907, Lees was known as William Street. Originally the area was an industrial zone lying beside the train tracks. In the 1950s, the tracks were removed and replaced by the Queensway. The industry also left the area and new towers began to be built.The current road of Lees Avenue runs from Main Street in the west to where it crosses over the Queensway when it becomes King Edward Avenue.
A Little History about OUR Building
History of 190 Lees Avenue
Situated in a dynamic area of Ottawa East, 190 Lees Avenue stands on land with a rich and complex industrial past. Prior to its residential development, the Lees Avenue corridor was an active industrial hub, including the site of the Ottawa Gas Works (circa 1920s-1950s) which left behind coal tar byproducts, and earlier, sections of the area also served as landfill. Following the removal of train tracks and the construction of the Queensway in the mid-20th century, the landscape transformed. 190 Lees Avenue was constructed around 1981, becoming part of a cluster of high-rise apartment buildings that define the modern Lees Avenue skyline. Today, the building offers a vibrant living experience, benefitting from its convenient location near the University of Ottawa and the Lees O-Train station, amidst an area that has undergone significant environmental remediation and urban renewal.
