Skyline, Ottawa
Skyline is the name of a neighbourhood in the Nepean sector of Ottawa, Canada. It is bounded on the south by Meadowlands Drive of Parkwood Hills, on the west by Clyde Avenue and Merivale Road, on the north by Baseline Road and on the east by the neighbourhood of Fisher Heights.
Most of the houses were built from the early 1950s to early 1960s. In the 1970s a 12-storey high rise was built as well as some town houses on Eleanor Drive which is owned by Minto Developments Inc.. More gardens homes were built in the 1980s. In 2008, Encore Private was built just off Farlane Drive and Baseline Road.
Features
The neighbourhood includes Meadowlands Mall and Emerald Plaza in the southwest corner. It is also home of the City View Curling Club (despite City View being west of Clyde/Merivale). The neighbourhood is also home to Gilbey Park and Eleanor Park. CTV Ottawa had had its headquarters in Skyline, from the 1950s until February 2010, when its newsroom was gutted by fire.[1]
