Hartin's Hotel
The former Hartin's Hotel, currently the East India Company Restaurant and Conference Hall, is a historic building in the Bells Corners neighbourhood of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. History The two-storey building has a symmetrical facade, with a side gable roof, dressed limestone construction with decorative stone quoins and voussoirs. It was constructed circa 1870 on the north side of what is now known as Robertson Road, at the intersection with Old Richmond Road. The two-storey stone building is the oldest building in Bells Corners and was constructed shortly after the Carleton County Fire of 1870 destroyed the earlier building on the site. David Hartin had acquired the former Malcomson's Tavern on 23 July 1870. The original building was destroyed by fire in August the same year. He subsequently rebuilt a larger stone structure on the site in 1871 and named it Hartin's Hotel. It still stands today as the home of the East India Company restaurant and conference centre. In ...

Bells Corners
Bells Corners is a suburban neighbourhood in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located along Richmond Road west of downtown, within Ottawa's western Greenbelt, in College Ward. As of the Canada 2016 Census, the community had a population of 9,272. History The community owes its existence to its location on Richmond Road midway between Richmond Landing near Bytown (now Ottawa) and the military settlement at Richmond, at the junction with the concession road leading west to the Hazeldean neighbourhood in neighbouring Goulbourn Township. It was also the junction between Richmond Road and the "base line" which was the boundary road between concessions on the Ottawa front and those on the Rideau front. Hence, the plural "Corners". It was named after Hugh Bell, who owned a tavern on the site of the present day Bells Corners Public School from 1834 to 1863. Prior to that it was known locally as just "the Corners", but when the first post office opened on 6 August 1851 it had to ad ...

Robertson Road ( Ottawa Road #36) is a road in the west end of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It runs approximately between Baseline Road east of Bells Corners and Eagleson Road in Kanata where the road continues west as Hazeldean Road. At Baseline Road it continues east as Richmond Road.

The route west of the old CP Rail trestle (now the Trans Canada Trail) passes through the Greenbelt and is designated as a high risk deer collision corridor.

Richmond Road (Ontario)
Richmond Road is a major road in Eastern Ontario, Canada. Richmond Road begins as a western continuation of Wellington Street West in Ottawa, beyond the intersection at Island Park Drive, a division point moved west a few blocks from Western Avenue, the historical township boundary, in 2005. It serves as the primary road for Westboro. Continuing westward, the road passes by Ottawa landmarks such as the Lincoln Fields Mall, Bayshore Shopping Centre and Queensway Carleton Hospital. At the intersection with Baseline Road, it gives way to Robertson Road just before reaching Bells Corners, due to a name change made in 2012. At the historical corner, the prior route of Richmond Road diverges to the south as a mostly residential street named Old Richmond Road. The "Old" name now attaches to the remainder of the former route, which regains its stature as a major road as the continuation of southbound Moodie Drive, leaving Bells Corners and running through the Greenbelt.
