Great Location
Riverside South is located south of the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport and east of the Rideau River. The area has rapidly expanded since the early 1990s. The development then started and continues today. Most of the new construction is near River Road and Earl Armstrong Road and just west of Limebank Road. Riverside South will become an even larger and more important community, with south expansions closer to Manotick and the east closer to Leitrim.
The Vimy Memorial Bridge
The Vimy Memorial Bridge is a very iconic landmark in Riverside South. Completed in 2014, the Bridge crosses the Rideau River, connecting Strandherd Drive in Barrhaven and Earl Armstrong Road in Riverside South. The Bridge commemorates one of the most famous battles of the First World War. It honours the sacrifice of the women and men who fought in that war.
Local Markets
There are several excellent markets in the area. One is the Barrhaven Farmers Market which was established in 2017. It is located at 670 Cedarview Road on the grounds of The Log Farm. This beautifully treed location is an ideal setting for a farmers' market. Every week they have approximately 25 to 30 vendors. All are local, and everything is either grown, baked, or made by them. There is no admission fee to shop at the market, and there is plenty of free parking. The Ottawa Organic Farmers' Market operates every Saturday from 10 am to 12 pm and is located at the Riverside United Church, 3191 Riverside Drive. The market is a great place to get your local organic food.
