The community of Riverside South is nestled on the Rideau River, just five minutes south of Hunt Club Road in the southern part of the City of Ottawa (formerly known as Gloucester).

The community boasts a magnificent setting. The area's natural assets include Mosquito Creek, beautiful ravines, lush woodlands, and of course, proximity to the Rideau River and the new rapidly expanding twenty-four acre active park. The entire community is designed with respect for this natural landscape.

Riverside South is planned to be a self-sufficient "town" satisfying residents' desire for recreation, shopping and even business parks for employment. The area provides easy access to many of Greater Ottawa's key features including the downtown core and the McDonald-Cartier International Airport. With 120 high-tech businesses already in the area, a new state-of-the-art high-technology business development will also be located just minutes north of the community and bus service is available for the community residents. A convenient community plaza is fully leased and now under construction, and a new elementary school proposed to follow in the near future. The Rideauview Community Centre is now open and located in the heart of Riverside South.

A sales pavilion, decorated Townhome and Single Family show homes are also open for viewing and showcase Urbandale's innovative designs. Consumer demand and market activity have been extremely strong and the community is already swelling into a carefully thought out blend of single family homes, townhomes and bungalows. This master-planned community will eventually cover over 3,200 acres and be home to 35,000 residents. Urbandale Corporation is the owner and developer of over 1000 acres of the Riverside South community, one of the largest residential developments ever undertaken in the National Capital Region.

There is easy access via tranquil routes to the region's key features including downtown Ottawa and the international airport. Riverside South, a master planned rapidly expanding community nested in a natural country setting.
