Shaping a Bright Future for Ottawa

Downtown Ottawa, like many urban centers, has faced significant changes in the wake of the pandemic, with the rise of remote work impacting foot traffic and the vibrancy of the city’s core. As a result, the city must adapt by rethinking how to attract people back to its downtown areas. Initiatives such as creating more public spaces, activating main streets, and supporting local businesses will be key to revitalizing the area and ensuring it remains a thriving hub for residents, workers, and visitors alike.
