Partners selected for new mixed-use, mixed-income housing at 1245 Kilborn Place

Ottawa Community Housing and the Ottawa Supportive Housing Network, together with Centretown Citizens Ottawa Corporation and Nesting Ground, have been selected to collaborate with the City to advance the planning for 1245 Kilborn Place.

Located in Ottawa’s Alta Vista neighbourhood, 1245 Kilborn Place was purchased in 2023 with the goal to broaden the housing types and services available. The vision for the site includes a mix of affordable, market and supportive housing units, a range of health, community and social services and a public park to benefit both new residents and the wider community.

Along with the team of housing providers who have been selected as partners through a public Request for Offers process, the South East Ottawa Community Health Centre will also contribute to planning for the site to integrate housing and health services.

The City will be working with these partners through a collaborative process to prepare and deliver a Concept Plan and Implementation Plan. There will be further opportunities for community members to review and provide feedback on the plan as it evolves.

An in-person community information session will be held to meet the partners and to provide updates on next steps for this initiative:

Location: In-person at Jim Durrell Community Centre, Ellwood Room

Date: Thursday, June 11, 2026

Time: 6:30 to 8 pm

Future community engagement opportunities will be posted to Engage Ottawa, where residents can also sign up to receive project updates.
