Seven more federal properties will soon be available to build housing on in Ottawa, including three properties near the O-Train Hurdman station.

The federal government announced 14 new properties will be added to the Canada Public Land Bank on Tuesday, the list of federal properties that could be turned into new homes, including seven in Ottawa and two in Gatineau, Que. The Canada Public Land Bank was launched in August, featuring an initial 56 federal properties identified to support housing, including 22 in Ottawa.

“We have made it clear at that time that this was only a first step,” Jean-Yves Duclos, Minister of Public Services and Procurement, told reporters.

“Today, we are honouring our promise by adding 14 new land and buildings to build stronger communities and more affordable homes for Quebecers and other Canadians. This should lead to construction of approximately 7,600 homes.”
