## Mapped Amenity Inventory

Havencrest includes eight mapped amenity points across three distinct categories. The inventory comprises one school, one park, and six transit stops. These points are attributed to the neighbourhood boundary in the source data. The count reflects presence rather than service quality or accessibility metrics. No additional municipal context is provided for these specific locations.

Cedarview Middle School represents the single educational facility in the set. Havencrest Park is the only mapped green space within the area. Six transit stops appear in the list, including Cobble Hill / Barry Helman. Other stops include Cobble Hill / Fallowfield and CitiGate / CrossKeys. These names identify specific locations but do not indicate route frequency. The data does not support claims about connectivity or commute behaviour. Sources:

Schools: Cedarview Middle School is the only school mapped in Havencrest. Its presence indicates an educational facility within the area. No report card data or qualitative review is available. The mapping does not confirm catchment boundaries or student demographics. Access and quality remain unverified by the supplied evidence. The Fraser Institute cautions that the choice of a school should not be made solely on the basis of any one source of information. Recreation: Havencrest Park is the sole mapped recreational space in the neighbourhood. No recreation programs are listed for this facility. The city-wide recreation program count is zero. This absence does not imply a lack of activities. It reflects the scope of the supplied dataset. Further verification is required for program availability. Sources:

## City market context

From the Ottawa market article, 22 September 2026:

Ottawa's August 2026 sales-to-new-listings ratio dropped to 47.3% citywide, with apartments lagging at 43.0%. The 4.3-point gap between segments reveals where buyer leverage is forming before headline prices move. Ottawa's August 2026 sales-to-new-listings ratio fell to 47.3% citywide while apartments recorded 43.0%, a 4.3-point gap that signals weaker absorption in the condo segment even as composite benchmark prices held near flat. This divergence matters because it identifies where buyer leverage is emerging before it shows up in headline price indices.
