That is a few years more than the original proposed timeline.

I bumped this up from 2020.
This has dragged on for so long, without anyone speaking about it so I thought that the project was dead.
During the recent Homecoming Week , a chance meeting with some uOttawa officials said it was not.
If I understand what was said, the NCC has agreed in principle to transfer the needed land to the university when uOttawa has all its ducks in order, including financing,to move ahead on the project. The slowness with which the university moves on such projects means it still could be a considerable time away.
