Accessible, Affordable, Sustainable.

Beaver Barracks: Affordable rental housing in downtown Ottawa

Overview of Beaver Barracks

Accessible & Visitable

Accessibility has been an integral concern of the project from the beginning. 94% of the units in phase one will be visitable and 20 units will be fully wheelchair accessible. All amenity areas will also be barrier-free.

Community Gardening

The centrepiece of Beaver Barracks is a large organic community garden. Individual garden plots at ground level and planter boxes on the rooftops of each building will be available to tenants who like to get their hands dirty.

Sustainable Heating & Cooling

An underground geothermal system will provide highly efficient heating, cooling and hot water to every apartment and townhouse at Beaver Barracks. Tenants will pay a flat monthly fee for the utilities.

Beaver Barracks is a new affordable housing development in Centretown.
