Westboro Station is a multi-phase, mixed-use development located along Richmond Road in Ottawa’s Westboro Village. Bordered by four different neighbouring conditions, the landscape design responds clearly to a pedestrian-friendly, urban streetscape while also blending into the adjacent community of single-family homes and Byron Linear Park.

The development respects the historic character of Westboro Village through its pedestrian oriented streetscapes, green space, roof terraces, and material selections. A continuation of the façades along Richmond Road, the residential towers are stepped back vertically to establish a strong two-storey relationship with the street. This activates the commercial frontage to create inviting and comfortable pedestrian spaces in an increasingly dense streetscape.
