In 2005, the City sold a piece of land at 1967 Riverside Dr to the Ottawa Hospital for $1, with a stipulation the land could be reclaimed if it is not used for non-profit health care use. The Hospital now has plans to lease out five acres to a private, for-profit long-term care home and retirement residence. The City is willing to let the hospital lease the land – for $12.9 million.
