Overview of The River Terraces at Greystone

The River Terraces at Greystone is a mid-rise condominium within the 26-acre Greystone Village master-planned community. Designed by Hobin Architecture, the nine-storey building is a new construction located on the historic former Oblate Lands.

The project integrates modern residential density with the preserved heritage of the site, connecting the established neighbourhood of Old Ottawa East with the Rideau River landscape.

The design maintains a scale consistent with local heritage assets, including the nearby Edifice Deschâtelets Scholasticate Monastery. The structure contains 101 units and transitions between the urban corridor and the 30-metre naturalized shoreline.

Suites range from 300 to 2,500 square feet, accommodating various household sizes — from single professionals to families and downsizers.
