Neighbourhood Puzzle - Ottawa (Puzzle #008)

■ · By Frédérick Lavoie · Published by Centre for Canadian Crosswords · Published 2025-04-26T10:00:23.063Z

Constructor's Note
A Neighbourhood puzzle is about as local as you can get: plucked straight from the street grid, the crossword recreates a local intersection! To keep it fair (and accessible to non-residents), this will only rely on streets whose names are knowable and clueable outside of their urban context - but for the intrepid and the curious, this puzzle draws from Ottawa's Byward Market neighbourhood.
