A fascinating stroll through a post-World War I planned community – a marvel of social engineering that was featured on the Governor General's Christmas card. Pocket-sized Lindenlea promised returning veterans subsidized housing in a community designed by one of the mega-stars of European urban planning. Learn about garden suburbs, the struggles to implement Adams’ vision for Lindenlea, and more than one scandal. We will also consider the neighbourhood’s distinct characteristics, asking what lessons from Lindenlea might apply to contemporary city-building.

GUIDE: Victoria Angel is a Principal and cultural heritage practice lead at ERA Architects Inc., and the manager of the firm’s Ottawa office. She has served as the heritage planner on a broad range of projects, among them the Senate of Canada Building Rehabilitation, the National Arts Centre Rejuvenation, the Centretown Heritage Study, and the Kìwekì (formerly Nepean) Point Redevelopment.
