James House
The evolution
of urban living in Ottawa
James House is the new next thing from Urban Capital and the Taggart Group, partners in trend-setting, high-design condominiums since their first collaboration, the East Market, back in 2001. With only 127 “new-loft” style units, this boutique-sized development takes urban condominium living in Ottawa to the next level, with suites that newly push the envelope in terms of interior design and feel, beautiful yet functional amenities, and a very handsome street presence. Located one block north of UC and Taggart’s three-phase Central development, amongst Ottawa’s most popular condominium addresses, and designed by Toronto’s architectural powerhouse, RAW Design, James House will set a new standard for urban living in Ottawa.
Architecture
A perfect fit
Flanked by a traditional Main Street dotted with a variety of commercial buildings and small and mid-sized shops, and surrounded by parks and tree-lined residential streets, James House reflects Urban Capital and the Taggart Group’s philosophy of entering an area as a good neighbour. With scale in mind, and keeping the building in context, James House offers the streetscape a handsome building of modern yet timeless character. Its warm-hearted brick façade with a screen-like brick detail has fit, while its mid-rise height increases density without disruption.
