From Issue No. 232 | September 02, 2014
In 1907, Nepean Township villages such as Ottawa South were annexed to the City of Ottawa. Improved city services soon followed, such as a new high level Bank Street Bridge over the canal. It allowed the privately-owned Ottawa Electric Railway to extend streetcar services which stimulated housing and devethe development of one of Ottawas first streetcar suburbs.
Guides: Julie Harris and Kathy Krywicki, authors of Exploring the Built Heritage Of Ottawa South.
