Park and Recreation Infrastructure

Three parks are mapped within Tanglewood: Medhurst Park, Donland Park, and Tanglewood Park. These green spaces provide local outdoor areas for residents. The presence of multiple parks suggests distributed access to open land throughout the neighbourhood boundary rather than a single central gathering point for all residents.

Sixteen recreation points are attributed to the area, including the Tanglewood Park Community Centre and Tanglewood Park Ice Rink. These facilities offer structured activity options beyond passive park use. The concentration of these specific named facilities indicates dedicated infrastructure for community engagement and seasonal sports activities within the local geography. Sources: [Medhurst Park]

Transit Stop Distribution

Twenty-four transit stop points are mapped across Tanglewood, with names referencing intersections like Woodfield / Benlea and Old Richmond / Tanglewood. This density of mapped stops implies multiple potential boarding locations for residents. The distribution along various street names suggests coverage across different corridors within the neighbourhood limits.

The list includes repeated entries for locations such as Woodfield / Dalehurst and Woodfield / Lansfield. These duplicates likely represent opposing directions of travel at the same physical intersection. While the count establishes the number of mapped points, it does not confirm the specific bus routes serving these stops or their operational frequency. Sources: [Medhurst Park]

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.
