The Key Factors
TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT
Residents at 1399 Avenue U will benefit from the proximity to the St. Laurent LRT Station, located less than 600m from the site. This transit network provides quick and convenient access to Ottawa’s major employment centers in the Downtown Core and Tunney’s Pasture, as well as Ottawa’s two major universities.
RETAIL EXPERIENCE
The nearby retail hubs of St. Laurent Shopping Centre and Ottawa Train Yards offer a diverse range of shops and retail experiences, ranging from well known clothing chains to electronics stores, to stores specializing outdoor equipment and apparel. Cafes and restaurants are also found throughout both retail hubs.
NEARBY DEVELOPMENT
1399 Avenue U is located adjacent to a large proposal for a major government employment node which will see improvements to the nearby areas. New offices, retail offerings and parkland dedication will help enhance the diversity of employment opportunities and amenities in the area.
