EVERYTHING WALLIS HOUSE

Wallis House is a classic heritage building located in Ottawa’s Byward Market. Built in 1873, Wallis House was built as one of Ottawa’s first hospitals. After closing in 1924, Wallis House served as a seminar until 1943 when the  military took it over to house Canadian naval soldiers during the Second World War.

In 1990, Wallis House was designated as a Heritage Building by the City of Ottawa. It was then converted to a condominium with forty-six authentic lofts. The condos were built to maintain the authenticity of Wallis House, keeping it’s Cathedral ceilings, large hallways, and soaring windows. Condos inside Wallis House have been said to have a New York-style loft feeling.
