This tour explores the heart of the former Westboro village over nearly 200 years, in its former incarnations as villa development along a macadamized road, an industrial hamlet along a railway, and a residential and commercial centre along a suburban streetcar line. Highlights include All Saints Chapel, the former Nepean Town Hall, the Westboro War Memorial, and Maplelawn mansion and walled garden. There are currently six designated heritage buildings in Westboro.
There will be a set of stairs to descend in one place during the tour, with a level alternate route available.
GUIDES: Bruce Elliott, retired Carleton University history professor and author, with David Jeanes, former Heritage Ottawa president. Both have lived in the neighbourhood for many years.
