Around the Block
LeBreton Flats:

A historic flats community along the Ottawa River, reborn as a transit-anchored downtown neighbourhood.

Once an industrial and working class district dating to the 19th century, LeBreton Flats has been transformed by the National Capital Commission into a modern urban community with two LRT stations and direct access to the Ottawa River. LeBreton Flats homes for sale and LeBreton Flats homes for rent are increasingly sought after through Jump.


What to Expect:

A modern, transit-oriented community with a strong focus on sustainability and accessibility.

Residents can expect contemporary high-rise rental and condominium buildings, with newer developments designed to net-zero carbon standards. The neighbourhood emphasizes walkability, cycling infrastructure, and direct connections to the Ottawa River pathway network.


The Lifestyle:

An active urban lifestyle anchored by parks, riverside pathways, and major cultural attractions.

The Canadian War Museum and the National Holocaust Monument sit within the community itself, while the LeBreton Flats Pathway runs alongside the Ottawa River for cycling, walking, and seasonal events. The future destination park and Aqueduct District will further expand public space across the neighbourhood.

Unexpected Appeal:

The site of one of the largest urban redevelopments in the country, blending heritage, public space, and net-zero design.

LeBreton Flats is being rebuilt around four distinct districts, including a future events centre district and a major destination park. Once complete, the community will be one of the largest net-zero residential developments in Canada, with affordable housing, indigenous design partnerships, and barrier-free public realm woven throughout.



The Market:

A growing market of new high-rise rental and condominium units in one of Ottawa's most central locations.
