Kanata

Kanata extends across 139 square kilometers in the Ottawa Valley, with neighborhoods including Beaverbrook, Glen Cairn, Bridlewood, and Morgan's Grant.

The area transformed from agricultural land to a developed community in the 1960s, receiving its name through a public referendum and city status in 1978.

The Canadian Tire Centre serves as the home arena for the Ottawa Senators NHL team, while the Kanata Symphony and Theatre groups present performances.

The Kanata Research Park contains numerous technology companies, establishing the region as a primary technological employment center in Ottawa.

The neighborhood structure follows Bill Teron's design principles, incorporating residential areas, commercial zones, and green spaces within smaller connected communities.
