Click image to enlarge. This aerial photo of McKellar Park Golf Club shows the area it occupied in 1932. Carling Avenue, at the bottom of the photo, was the southern boundary. The eastern boundary of the club was a line mid-way between Fraser and Denbury Avenues. The western boundary is approximated by Redwood Avenue in the north, a piece of present-day Sherburne Avenue in the middle, and Manitou Drive in the southern part. The northern border of the golf club was quite irregular, falling between Dovercourt and Keenan Avenues. Windemere Avenue, previously known as 4th Avenue, divided the golf club into two parts, with the front nine holes to the east of Windemere and the back nine holes to the west.

We learned that the Goldenrod Community Garden has received approval from the National Capital Commission to build on a parcel of land located west of Parkdale, just north of the Tunney’s Pasture Complex.
After 50 years in business, the owners of Romeo’s Garage & Body Shop are retiring and closing the shop down.
