A quiet renaissance is happening in the Quartier…
The village-like downtown east neighbourhood,mostly known for its large Francophone population, is also becoming known for good food, culture and quality of life.
Quartier Vanier, also known as the “QV” is now one of the City’s best places to live, shop and eat with our ethnically diverse merchants, affordable homes and a centrally located place to work.
Now newcomers are putting down roots and buying up businesses, with a resulting boom in new restaurants, shops and boutiques. Modern condo towers fill Vanier’s skyline and the rows of charming older homes are as eclectic as ever.
Our exciting arrays of small businesses are known for their passion, dedication and exceptional service. These merchants are one of the reasons why “QV” continues to prove there’s far more to east Ottawa than first meets the eye. The QV BIA is proud of our community and invites you to experience it!
