A downtown walk.

It was a nice sunny day today in downtown Ottawa. I try to do a 4-5km walk several days per week. I started my photo exploration on Metcalfe Street.

Metcalfe-Queen
I was prompted to look up with this arrow. I headed over to Nepean Street.

Nepean-Metcalfe

Condos almost ready at Nepean Street and Metcalfe Street. Continuing west up Nepean...

Got to Kent Street, diagonally across from my old parish church are these towers.

Nepean-Kent
New condo The Hudson.

Travelling a couple blocks west I ended up in front of the old family home at Nepean Street and Lyon Street.

IMGP9119

The house I grew up in. This was the family home of my Grand parents, later owned by my parents. 335-333 Nepean Street, built in 1867. Still standing but is surrounded now. With condos on Bay St, Lyon St and Gloucester St (behind it)
