Decommissioned federal armouries.

1.)  The Oak Street Complex - 933 Gladstone Avenue Ottawa. City of Ottawa politicians, why don't you give this land back to its rightful owners, the people of Canada. Remove the fences and No Trespassing signs and plant trees and flowers and create a playground. During the summer I  frequent Andrew Haydon Park which has bandstand, picnic tables, benches, a bridge, gazebos and two playgrounds... Little Italy is a prime tourist location comparable to the ByWard Market, Chinatown and the Experimental Farm.
 This neighbourhood does not have enough green spaces, considering the fact that the planning commission has given the green light to developers to build even more residential towers. And land behind the High School of Commerce 300 Rochester Street will be another target of intensification, another Ottawa Community Housing project. Catherine McKenney is an Ottawa city councillor for this ward and an Ottawa Community Housing director. People in overcrowded cities in Europe cherish their parks because visiting a park is their only chance to connect with nature and to enjoy the outdoors.
2.)  Denison Armoury - Toronto, Ontario. Demolished a few years ago.
3.)  Windsor Armoury - Sold to the University of Windsor.
4.)  Lees Avenue Armoury - Ottawa
5.)  Wallis House - Ottawa.
6.)  Niagara Falls Armoury - 5049 Victoria Avenue Niagara Falls, Ontario.
University Avenue Armoury, Windsor Ontario.
