The Glebe

Just South of Ottawa’s downtown core along the beautiful Rideau Canal, you’ll find the leafy and historic neighbourhood of the Glebe.

A must-see when visiting the Glebe is the historic Aberdeen Pavilion built in 1898. Originally used for agricultural shows and cattle auctions for the Central Canada Exhibition., the Pavilion – the only large-scale exhibition building in Canada surviving from the 19th century – is now the center of busting Lansdowne Place.

The Glebe is a beautiful neighbourhood lined with brick homes dating from the 1800’s, and it’s main thoroughfare along Bank Street is a great place to shop and dine.

The Glebe is also the home to TD Place, home of the Ottawa Redblacks, the Ottawa Fury and the Ottawa 67’s, and the adjacent Lansdowne Park is the site for many annual events and festivals including CityFolk, the Escapade Music Festival and the Canadian Tulip Festival.
