Central Park, Ottawa
Central Park is a small but vibrant community located in Ottawa West between Merivale Road and Clyde Avenue and is predominantly English speaking. The land where Central Park is currently located used to belong to the Experimental Farm until the City bought it and developed it in the late 1990's to the early 2000's. Interestingly, all of the roads in the community are New York City themed. There are no schools or churches directly in the community but there are many available just outside.
