 Chaudière Industrial District
September 18, 2:00 pm – MEET: former Naval Association building,
150 Middle Street, east off of Booth Street on Victoria Island – free parking 
The area around the Chaudière Falls has been the core of
Ottawa/Gatineau economic life from aboriginal times until the present. The 18th, 19th and early 20th century industrial developments are a microcosm of the development of Canada’s water and forest resources. The walk will look at sites of this industry on both sides of the river as well as the Falls and the potential for heritage re-development.
GUIDE: Chris Warden, iOAA, M.Arch. MTBA Associate.
