The annual Ottawa Architectural Conservation Awards recognize excellence in the preservation of the City's architectural heritage. Submissions were received in the following categories:
Restoration (returning a heritage resource to its original form, material and integrity);
Adaptive Use (modification of a heritage resource to contemporary functional standards while retaining its heritage character); and
Infill (an addition to a historic building, or all-new construction within a historic context).
Bronze plaques are mounted on Award of Excellence award-winning projects, and major contributors to each project receive framed certificates.Ward 12 - Councillor Georges BĂ©dard
139 Guigues Avenue is an 11-unit condominium located in the Lowertown West Heritage Conservation District.
This building respects the architectural character of the streetscape by maintaining the existing setbacks on the street, respecting the cornice line of the adjacent building and using new brick that is similar in colour to the older brick in nearby houses. While the development takes place across several property lines, it is divided into separate bays, and reads as a combination of smaller elements.
