Hintonburg has always been an interesting part of the city, and now it continues to grow into one of Ottawa’s most desirable neighbourhoods to live in. Due to its convenient location between downtown and neighbouring Westboro, the area has attracted many new businesses, community events, and condominium developments. Hintonburg is already a great place to live and raise a family, but with Ottawa’s new light rail transit plan in the works, it’s now also an ideal option for young professionals who work downtown.

99 Parkdale is a new condo tower by Urbandale and is scheduled for completion in 2015. The building will be just north of the neighbourhood’s main commercial shopping district and will offer exceptional views of the surrounding area, the downtown skyline, or the Gatineau Hills beyond the picturesque Ottawa River. The location offers plenty of restaurants, shops, cafes, and parks all within a short walking distance, with fresh produce and flowers just blocks away at the Parkdale Market. Buyers will also be able to enjoy the building’s proximity to the cycling and walking paths that run alongside the river, allowing for scenic and relaxing evening walks.
The building will feature 180 units in 28 storeys, with a variety of different floor plans and city views for buyers to choose from. Suites will range in size from one-bedroom to three-bedrooms, with some units offering dens for additional living space. Depending on the size of the unit and the floor plan, prices range from $327,900 to over $1,687,700. The costs for a parking space and a storage locker are both included in the unit price, which is a feature that will appeal to most buyers since those costs are often separate from the purchase of a condo suite.
Most units will offer ceiling heights of at least 9’ in main living areas, with carpet in the bedrooms, engineered hardwood flooring in living areas, and ceramic tile in the bathrooms and laundry rooms. All non-carpeted areas of the suites will include acoustic attenuation underlayment to reduce noise between the units. Designer kitchens will offer stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops with matching backsplashes, modern cabinetry, and a kitchen island to provide extra counter and work space, with additional lighting provided over the island. The units will be fully set up for cable, internet, and telephone services, and will include additional USB outlets for charging electronic devices. Suites will also include in-suite circuit breaker panels and individual utility metering systems.
In addition to the many neighbourhood amenities, buyers will have access to premium features offered by the condominium. Two private clubs for residents will be available, one on the 2nd floor and one on the 28th. Amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness centre with a hot tub, swim spa, steam room, and yoga room. The 2nd floor also includes guest suites, media and social rooms, and a mezzanine overlooking the lobby. On the 28th floor, residents can entertain guests in private dining rooms, a casual or formal lounge, a card room overlooking the river, and two catering kitchens. Additional features include a grand ballroom with a dance floor and three rooftop terraces offering exceptional views of the city that are sure to impress both residents and their guests.
