Step Inside Innovation at Bayview Yards during Doors Open Ottawa 2025
Saturday, June 7 | 10 AM – 4 PM | In Person & Virtual

Bayview Yards is proud to once again participate in Doors Open Ottawa, the City of Ottawa’s free annual architectural event celebrating the city’s built heritage. This year’s theme, « Echoes of Green: Heritage and Nature in Ottawa, » invites visitors to explore how history and sustainability intertwine in the spaces we inhabit.

Once a 1941 City Works building, Bayview Yards has been transformed into Ottawa’s LEED Gold-certified innovation hub—where the past meets the future under one roof. Discover how this historic site now serves as a launchpad for local entrepreneurs, a showcase for green technology, and a model for sustainable design.

Join us for:

Guided tours highlighting our architectural transformation

Presentations on sustainability and LEED-certified features

Showcases from local innovators like Growcer and Plantaform

A look at our green roof, vertical farm, and community gardens, where 90% of the produce supports families in need

Whether you’re passionate about architecture, clean tech, or community impact, Bayview Yards offers a rich experience grounded in innovation and inspired by nature.
