Wellington Street
Wellington Street fronts Parliament Hill and the formal federal precinct. Walking it reveals how monuments, government buildings and public spaces address one another.
The south and north sides tell different parts of the federal story, from working offices to the public grounds of the Hill. The street's formal edge helps orient a parliamentary walk, while the shift toward the canal shows where the government precinct meets Ottawa's wider downtown.
What to look for
Federal stone buildings and the Hill's open forecourt face across Wellington.
Useful to know
Walk a selected section between Parliament and the canal instead of treating the whole street as one stop.
