I visited the house approximately 20 years ago and was amazed to find an oasis tucked behind a busy stretch of Merivale Road. The heritage house and its property are important pieces of City View's history. and deserve protection. When William Wilfred Campbell became the owner of the property he named it Kilmorie. We know from Campbell's poetry he wasn't simply naming a home, he was naming the beautiful land surrounding the home. Unfortunately, preserving history and protecting green space always seems to involve a fight. The last owner/resident of 21 Withrow - Dr. David Roger - was involved in his own fight to protect land. Dr. Roger was a board member and later president of Beechwood Cemetery. Faced with the threat of a portion of Beechwood being turned into a condo development, Roger entered into a 10 year legal battle to fight development of the land. I'm grateful to Dr. Roger for helping to protect Beechwood Cemetery (also a part of my family's history). I'm grateful to all who've had the foresight and determination to protect green space and historically significant properties. 21 Withrow Ave is a gorgeous, historically significant property that should be enjoyed by all.

We have to save what we have because we are losing our identity from our religious views like Christmas (yes for those people who say otherwise) is religious and been taken over by those of non Christian faith (Happy Holidays).

They produce nothing but cheap, shoddy condo developments that will have a much shorter life span than these historical buildings and houses. This lack of appreciation of history has got to stop. Our city used to look nice with all of it's beautiful old buildings but it's starting to look like an eyesore with all of the uninspired glass boxes being built everywhere. Other city's have pride at what they they have conserved, Ottawa should have that same pride but we seem to be hostages to these developers.

It is a little known gem in city view that I walked by in the way to school (city view public) for nine years. It was the home to my friend Margie Rogers. It should not be sold and developed.

Doctor Roger has always believed in seperation of heritage from privately owned property as he didnt have it registered when he lived there. After a review of your slide presentation id also like to ask what community members have fond memories of this park like area using the example of picking berries. This has always been private property and Dr. Roger never invited the neighbourhood to tour the property. More lies to push your agenda. I truely grew up on that property and funny how the rest of you people with your memories were nowhere to be found. I appreciate your community doesnt want to lose its quiet park like setting but many of the surrounding properties have little to no green space. You dont get to build on the majority of your land and then complain that someone else is attempting to do the same. The community is entitled to want a park but this entitled attitude towards private property and falsified claims of preserving a former owners dreams is unacceptable. Shame on all of you for dragging my grandfather's name into your petty wants and disrespecting a great man (and contributing community member i might add) with your falsehoods and insincere claims to honor heritage. If you truely did honor this place as a part of history, you wouldnt need to rewrite it for selfish gains

The house has heritage status, so it is preserved. The stone house requires a lot of renos, so I'm not sure if it's a practical / affordable idea for the community or city - but a good portion of the land should be kept as greenspace. Even if they don't build a park - just save the trees and land. We are tired of leaving the neighbourhood to take our kids to the park, and the upgrades at City View Park are adequate but not the complete overhaul required. City View Park is a 15 minute walk from our house and it's tiny. Meanwhile, we have more & more newcomers in the neighbourhood - two houses built on properties where there used to be one. Where are all these new kids, whose parents are paying really high property taxes (and where developers paid a lot of park-in-lieu fees), going to play? On the busy streets with all the cross-neighbourhood traffic? Kids here (from Baseline to Epworth) have basically nowhere to play - let's fix this. Doug Frobel Park is being upgraded, but for anyone in St. Claire Gardens - that's really far to walk and not walkable if you have little kids.

I don't believe the "cash in lieu" has been used in our neighbourhood, perhaps used elsewhere in the Ward. I am worried about the mature trees being cut and the increase in traffic on Withrow from the development. Not happy about paying a levy to fund this, even though I am in favour of a park and its historical significance. I feel there is no sense of beauty and community in City View. I believe parkland is necessary to establish that. Please Mr Chiarelli, tax dollars can be collected from other development properites in the city. We need this park in City View.
