With the expansion of LRT and continued growth - where will Ottawa's next up-and-coming commercial neighbourhood be? Will we see any industrial areas become trendy like
Geary Ave in Toronto?
I think Bank in the Heron/Walkley area could be an interesting spot. Upgraded LRT, already has a diversity of restaurants, older warehouse/industrial buildings that can be reused, major developments nearby with Timbercreek, Distillery. I have many friends in their 30s that have moved to the surrounding neighbourhoods and really enjoy the location. The CDP envisions a lot of those industrial areas being redeveloped for residential, but I'd love to keep as non-res and encourage a diversity of uses.
Bank Street will also be turned into a complete street with bike lanes and medians
