Der westliche Rand des Friedhofs befindet sich in Vanier, südlich des Beechwood Cemetery. Seine östliche Grenze ist der St. Laurent Boulevard.

Geschichte Als die Stadt Ottawa ihre Friedhöfe in Lower Town (Barracks Hill Cemetery: 1788–1844 und Sandy Hill Cemetery: 1844–1872) schloss, erwarb Joseph Eugène Guigues, der erste Bischof von Ottawa (1848), 20 Acres Land von Herrn Bradley, um einen katholischen Friedhof einzurichten. Unter der Leitung von Canon Georges Bouillon entstanden die Pläne für den neuen Friedhof am 2. Oktober 1870. Im Jahr 1871 wurde mit den Bauarbeiten begonnen und am 1. Mai 1872 weihte Bischof Guigues das Gelände im Beisein von 8000 Gläubigen ein und der Friedhof wurde offiziell eröffnet.

Notre Dame High School (Ottawa)

Notre Dame High School is a Catholic intermediate school and high school in Ottawa's west operated by the Ottawa Catholic School Board. The school is one of the first in the area to use a uniform. The school is mainly two storeys throughout, except for the northeast corner where it features a basement in which the classrooms are almost exclusively for mathematics. It has an auditorium. It used to feature a single gymnasium in the centre of the school, but an extra one was built and opened in 2002–2003. Sports teams play under the moniker/nickname "Notre Dame Eagles" (formerly the Notre Dame Silver Eagles). The present site at 710 Broadview was once the site of Highland Park Technical School. Notre Dame High School moved into the 710 Broadview site during the mid-1990s, from their old site on the north west corner of the Holland Ave-Queensway intersection. That site is now Fisher Park Public School. The high school operates on a standard semestered system for grades 7-12. Grade 7-8 students take their classes in a separate wing of the school. History Initially, Notre Dame was located on Heron Road and was an all-girls school. In 1968, St Pat's School for boys moved to the campus and shared the chapel, theatre and other facilities with Notre Dame. In 1971, a few classes became blended from the 2 schools. In 1972, the senior grades from both schools were eliminated due to financial constraints, as there was not government funding for Catholic high schools in Ontario. In 1973, the nuns who ran Notre Dame were forced to close the doors. Students from Notre Dame had to attend public schools or go to St. Joes or St. Pius. A "new" Notre Dame was once again created after full funding for Ontario catholic schools was announced and the former St. Joseph and St. Raymond high schools (both grade 9-10) were merged into one school serving grade 9-OAC students. The school was relocated from its previous location on Holland Avenue in 1994.

O'Keefe House

O'Keefe House is the former mansion of businessman Eugene O'Keefe, which served as a residence for Toronto Metropolitan University. It is located at 137 Bond Street in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The building was a student residence from 1964 to 2018, and had 33 residents on three floors. History The land at what is today 137 Bond Street was sold to a dry goods importer by the name of William Mathers on April 14, 1855. Along with the land, Mathers received the not yet completed, golden-bricked house. The building would host its most prominent proprietor in 1879 when it was purchased by Eugene O'Keefe. He was attracted to the house at the corner of Bond and Gould because he could keep tabs on his neighbouring brewery and reside within a block of St. Michael's Cathedral. To accommodate his growing family, O'Keefe had the third floor added in 1889. O'Keefe lived at 137 Bond Street until his death on the night of September 30, 1913, in his second-floor bedroom. The house eventually was purchased by Longman's Publishing and converted to administrative space. The layout that can be found today can trace its origin to these offices. The Canadian Congress of Labour, the United Mine Workers and the Canadian Railroad Employees all utilized the Bond Street building at one point or another. On March 6, 1963, S.E. Lyons and Son Realty Limited sent a letter to Ryerson principal Howard H. Kerr offering the premises at Bond and Gould for $85,000. Kerr struck a deal at $80,000, a stark contrast from its $6,000 value in 1880 or the $677,000 price-tag for a summer 2004 renovation. In time for the fall semester of 1964, Ryerson opened “The Bond Street Annex” along with other new residencies on Church Street and Oakham House, then known as Kerr Hall. Time saw the demolition of the Church Street residencies, and Oakham House was shut down as a residence for lack of fire code compliance. From 1963 through to the construction of Pitman Hall in 1991, O’Keefe was Ryerson’s only official residence space. 2013 marked the 50th anniversary of O'Keefe House as a Ryerson residence. In 2018, with the opening of the new HOEM residence on Jarvis Street, Ryerson announced that the building would no longer house students from the 2018-19 academic year. Instead, the building will be used by the university for non-residential purposes.

Obabika River

The Obabika River is located in central Ontario, Canada. It is south of Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park and west of Lake Temagami, within Sudbury District. It flows from Obabika Lake in a south-westerly direction and drains into the Sturgeon River. The Obabika River is remote and surrounded by undeveloped wilderness. The river is characterized by long meandering sections through clay and sand valleys alternated by sections through eroded bedrock and marshes. The lower Obabika River is rather wide with several oxbow ponds, and obstructed by occasional log jams. Although the current is strong, the only noteworthy rapids occur immediately before its confluence with the Sturgeon River. With its steady current and few portages, the Obabika River is a popular canoe route within the Temagami region, linking Lake Temagami and Lady Evelyn Lake via Obabika Lake to the Sturgeon River. It is part of the traditional indigenous travel network called "nastawgan", which has changed little over many centuries. Obabika River Provincial Park The full length of the Obabika River is protected by and within the boundaries of the Obabika River Provincial Park. This park was created in 1989 and expanded in 2002 to 205 square kilometres (79 sq mi). Like most other waterway parks in Ontario, there are no services provided other than portage and campsite maintenance. This park is suitable for backcountry canoeing, nature exploration and wildlife viewing. In addition to the waters and shores of the Obabika River, the park also includes the southern portion of Lady Evelyn Lake and the Obabika Old-Growth Forest bordering on the north side of Obabika Lake, straddling across the boundaries of the Sudbury, Nipissing, and Timiskaming Districts.
