Steps away from ByWard Market, 90 George is a residential project housing 100 luxury condominiums. The building offers a wide range of services, such as a private club, a fitness centre, a spa, an indoor swimming pool and an outdoor terrace of approximately 835 m² (9,000 ft²). Its three-storey podium is dedicated to commercial use and offices.

Made with noble materials such as stone and zinc, 90 George borrows from the language of Ottawa’s many institutional buildings. Its striking verticality is emphasized by the composition of the façades, and the structure is crowned with signature latticework.

The podium blends into the existing urban fabric with two distinct façades. Made of masonry, the façade on Rideau Street is a nod to the site’s heritage. Made of limestone, the George Street façade makes a dynamic contribution to the surrounding urban neighbourhood with its modern design and commercial spaces.
