Change of Use Permits in Ottawa
The team at R.Viau Drafting & Design has helped a multitude of clients in Ottawa with Changing the Use of their buildings.
Examples of a Change of Use / Unit Conversion scenarios:
Converting a 3 unit building into a 4 unit building
Converting a residential building into a retail building
Converting an office building or shopping center into apartments or condominiums
Converting old factory or warehouse into loft apartments, co-working spaces, or creative studios.
Converting a retail space into office space, a fitness center, or a medical clinic.
This could involve converting a larger structure, such as a single-family home, a commercial property, or an industrial building, into separate living spaces (e.g., apartments, condominiums, or rental units). Residential unit conversions are a common approach to increasing housing density and optimizing the use of available land or existing buildings.
