What is Glen Cairn like?
Glen Cairn is one of Kanata’s original residential communities. A. Y. Jackson Secondary School, John Young Elementary School and the Hazeldean library are among its local institutions. The Trans Canada Trail marks the southern edge used in this guide.
As of · Updated
Approximate residential-core boundary: Hazeldean Road to the north, Eagleson Road to the east, Terry Fox Drive to the west and the Trans Canada Trail to the south. ONS’s Glen Cairn area also includes Trailwest and the Kanata South Business Park and is larger than this polygon.
Glen Cairn’s early development dates to the 1960s. The larger ONS area also covers newer communities, so its housing data should not be treated as a profile of the original residential core alone.
