| 245 Kent Street, between downpours |
[C]onstructed by Charlesfort on Kent St in Ottawa... [b]oth buildings are located side-by-side in the heart of Centretown in Ottawa’s business district. Inspired by New-York Art Deco, the exterior architecture of the Hudson Park buildings is astounding. The Hudson Park buildings bring their classy exterior design to the inside. The lobbies are tastefully detailed and decorated. All units feature 9-foot ceilings giving the feel of being in the “Big Apple”.So yes, Hudson Park as in "...on the Hudson". The HP towers occupy the SE corner of Kent and Nepean, diagonally across from St. Patrick's Basilica. So arranged, #235 actually faces onto Nepean — the two buildings are set at 90° to each other, their proximal ends silhouetted to striking effect thus...
They're a gorgeous pair whether seen from a distance or up close.
The Hudson Park Towers were built between 2007 and 2010. They displaced a McEvoy-Shields funeral home that sat on the corner.
