NCC Parkland in 1992. Reposting. All of the land was federally owned.
- Confederation Park, Ottawa Centre, Laurier Avenue West, 2.5473 ha.

- Vincent Massey Park, Ottawa South. Riverside Drive & Heron Road. 29.5600 ha. (Note: PWGSC gave Riverside Dr. and Heron Rd. to the City of Ottawa. "City Council shall support the ownership transfer from Public Works and Government Services Canada to the City those portions of Heron Rd. and Riverside Dr. that traverse the Confederation Heights area to have them formally integrated as part of the arterial road network." Vincent Massey Park will probably be demoted to a parkette or pocket park, less than 1 ha. Regional Land Strategy for Ottawa 2006-2031. 4.4.2 Parks and Open Spaces - "The City's requirements for parks and open spaces may have to be revisited to ensure that the types of spaces required of developers reflect the need for quality spaces...The City should accept parkettes as part of the 5% parkland dedication.")

I believe that many powerful entities have their sights on Ottawa's Greenbelt; land beside the parkways and a de paved Sir John A. and Queen Elizabeth parkway; and the 1,000 acre Experimental Farm. They want to "animate" the Sparks Street Mall by building more residential towers.
