The Glebe is an area of Ottawa that gets its recognition through the history that surrounds it. Chiefly, the fact that this bit of land was originally part of the St Andrews Church in 1837, thus giving the area its name. The term Glebe references land owned and operated by a religious group or institution in a self-supporting manner. Furthermore, it is located just south of downtown Ottawa. It is surrounded by the Rideau Canal on two sides the eastern and southern. The Queensway, (highway 417), borders the northern edge with Dows Lake just west of Bronson Avenue being its western boundary.
The population is approximately around 12,000 people living in early 20th century style three story homes, and is one of the wealthier neighbourhoods in Ottawa. Additionally, it is the location of Lansdowne Park, where the Canadian Football team the Ottawa Redblacks has their home in the Frank Clair Stadium. This is where the Glebe Collegiate University is as well. Through the Centre of the Glebe you have Bank Street, which is where you will find upscale shopping and dinning targeting the fashion conscious and the connoisseur of fine food along with access to public transportation provided by OC Transpo
If you enjoy a community that beliefs in having a high level of interest in the social and political climate of a city, and are active in keeping it moving forward, then once you move to the Glebe you will fit in perfectly. In the area of recreational facilities for public use, there are the Rideau Canal trails that are perfect for bicycling, jogging, and walking where those interested in staying fit or who wish to enjoy the many shops that stretch along the canal can go. There is also Patterson Creek East that juts off of the Rideau Canal. These are just two of the many parks available in the Glebe.
Additionally, the residents of the Glebe hold a well-recognized annual event called the Great Glebe Garage Sale that add to the ever-present sense of community that enables the local shops to provide food and entertainment for the event. Because living close to downtown Ottawa in the Glebe is important, it fits into the affluent lifestyle that your family and you are well accustomed. Realize that living in the Glebe provides access to many cultural and social activities that are just waiting for you and your family to join.
