Manor Park
Manor Park (2006 population 3,367) is a neighbourhood in the East End of Ottawa, Ontario, in the area of Rockcliffe Park.
Its western boundary can be roughly defined as Birch Avenue, southern as Beechwood Cemetery, eastern as Aviation Parkway and northern as Ottawa River.
It is an almost exclusively residential area, the great majority of its housing stock having been built in the late 1940s and early 50s, by a consortium of 5 Ottawa area developers. Prior to its development, much of the land was slightly marshy treed area, used as riding trails stemming from nearby Mile Circle as well as the RCMP stables, which remain nearby. It is well treed, with some notable white pines scattered throughout.
The area is popular with public servants. A small pocket park is named Vincent Anthony park, after a former Canadian diplomat.
