This proposal is for Greystone Village Retirement Residence at the property known municipally as 225 Scholastic Drive, in Old Ottawa East. The property has an area of approximately 3,027 m2, and has approximately 33 m of frontage along the west side of future Scholastic Drive, and 75 m of frontage on the south side of the future extension of Oblats Avenue, both of which are to be constructed as part of Phase 2 of Greystone Village.
The subject property is currently vacant and forms part of the former Deschâtelets grounds at 175 Main Street. The property is situated to the northeast of the existing Deschâtelets Building which is currently unoccupied, however, which is proposed to be converted to residential units in the future. The remaining vacant lands at 175 Main Street will be developed with a mix of primarily residential and mixed-use buildings of varying heights and densities.
The proposal involves the development of an eight-storey retirement home building with a gross floor area of approximately 6,713 m2 on the subject lands. The development will include a total of 146 rooming units, as well as accessory administrative offices and health and personal service uses, and various amenity areas. The building massing comprises three distinct blocks, including two, seven and eight-storey masses oriented in a “T-shape” configuration. The massing and form has been designed such that views of the nearby Ottawa River will be optimized for a large portion of the suites and common areas with the building.
