WHEN YOUR NEIGHBOURS ARE SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT BUILDINGS IN THE CITY, CATHEDRAL HILL
MUST BE NOTHING LESS.

Landmarks love company. And so the modern new condominium Cathedral Hill is set to rise beside Ottawa's historic Christ Church Cathedral, as well as the other distinguished addresses to be found in this most desirable neighbourhood.

Cathedral Hill succeeds by bringing together contrasts in the most complementary fashion. A modern highrise building on a historic heritage site. An urban vibrancy in a green setting offering natural views of the Gatineau Hills and Ottawa River. A lifestyle that blends the opportunity to enjoy daily outdoor activities with the ability to step out for a night on the town whenever the mood strikes you.

A Perfect Balance

At Windmill Developments, we believe that developers have a responsibility to be positive agents of change, and are committed to changing the current development paradigm. We are doing this in a variety of ways. We strive to be the driving force behind the creation of a landmark portfolio of "green" real estate that demonstrates competitive advantage over the conventional real estate model for the long-term. We are providing positive and achievable examples of how development can, and should, be happening.

Ultimate Lifestyle Package

Imagine this perfect pairing — an urban oasis at Cathedral Hill plus your own slice of cottage living at Whitewater Village, a fully catered cottage resort just one hour west of Ottawa. Like a condominium, Whitewater Village is fully maintained for you, including housekeeping. It is owned and managed by the resort owners based on the same structure as a condominium. The advantage is you only pay for a fraction of a cottage but enjoy all the benefits of full cottage ownership without the maintenance and upkeep hassles.

Project Design


There are a number of contrasts that come together in this project: traditional and modern architecture, global and local knowledge are two examples that are explored in this short feature that looks at both the exterior and interior design aspects of the project and the suites, including a 3D model of the Condo/Townhomes development.
