Westboro Beach is located in the larger geographic neighbourhood of Westboro in the urban west end of the City of Ottawa. (See map) The Westboro Beach community is unique in that it is located adjacent to the Ottawa River, is the site of a public access point to the River and is bounded to the South by the City’s transitway. In fact, Westboro Beach includes several transportation corridors: the transitway, the Trans Canada Trail, the Ottawa River Parkway, the NCC recreational pathway system and the Ottawa River. Westboro Beach is an active living community and greatly values greenspaces. At a recent visioning session residents defined our goals:
While working to save greenspace in our community, the Westboro Beach Community Association is working to maintain the high quality of life for our residents. The growing popularity of the Westboro Beach area has resulted in new housing development. The Association is working to ensure new development is compatible with the existing community. |
