Yeah…back when I didn’t know Ottawa at all, I looked at that apartment and it was a block off Gladstone, and the landlady was kinda creepy, dressed all in black. There were no provisions for cable or phone, and when she showed us (my dad was with me) the room, it had scrapy marks all over the walls. When I asked what they were from, she said the former tenant had “sort of lost it just before he moved out”. Er….yeah.

And she wanted $500/mo for this single room formerly inhabited by a crazy man, with no cable or phone. My dad and I practically ran to the car. I was much happier with my brand new house in Kanata for $400/mo with cable/internet/phone/nice friendly landlord who drove me to the hospital.

the couch is pretty cool. couldn’t you splash some colours around it and the other black chairs?! add some artwork, an area rug. seems like that might friendly it up a bit.

Yeah, that’s basically the right area, although we’re mostly trying to avoid Gladstone. Gladstone has one of the worst reputations for ‘seedy’ people living/’working’ *cough* there, and I’d like to avoid needing to carry a huge knife when I walk home alone at night. ;)

Re couch. We got a rather nice one at furniture emporium near the Pretoria bridge on Main st. Dunno your price range of course. but anyway, fwiw

IKEA rocks for nice looking utility furniture. I bought a “rack” for computer stuff downstairs.

South of Mechanicsville, north of Civic (and east of Hintonburg along Richmond/Wellington).

Coming along Somerset from downtown, you hit Chinatown, then the tracks, then Hintonburg, then Westboro.

Westboro is some fun stuff!

Where the heck is Hintonburg?
