Mutchmor Public School

Mutchmor Public School is an elementary school building in the Glebe neighborhood of Ottawa. It stands at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Lyon Street and displays Romanesque Revival features with decorative stone details and large windows throughout.

The building was constructed in 1895 and designed by architect E. L. Horwood. It was created as part of a major school construction effort by the Ottawa Public School Board during the 1890s.

The school shapes the neighborhood by serving families from many different backgrounds who gather here. It remains a focal point where children from the surrounding area come together daily.

The school sits at a busy street corner in the heart of the neighborhood. It is easy to reach on foot and the area has sidewalks with vehicles parked along nearby streets.

The front facade features a two-story section with a rounded arch entrance and a large Palladian window. Wrought iron gates add to this distinctive architectural detail that catches the eye at the street corner.
