811 Gladstone Avenue In Ottawa was a CMHC property.

     The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation owned the townhouse complex from 1968 until 2006, then CMHC sold it to the Ontario Housing Corporation. Now Ottawa Community Housing is building Rochester Heights on the land, which is near the High School of Commerce. Rochester Heights will never blend in with the existing neighbourhood, it is comparable to failed social experiments in the United States, the high rises that were eventually demolished.

Rochester Heights. I can only imagine what will be inflicted on 933 Gladstone Avenue; the Natural Resources Canada Booth Street Complex and land behind the Adult High School.
