It appears the National Capital Commission is finally getting serious about
developing its valuable LeBreton Flats land in downtown Ottawa. It’s about time.
A city’s core should be vibrant and ambitious, with striking monuments, unique
tourist attractions, inviting residential spaces and innovative businesses. None

executive officer Mark Kristmanson told the Citizen’s Don Butler that the agency
wants a new “signature development” that would, he hopes, have national reach.
