Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Dec 2020).

Boards and permanent lights make this a spot for evening shinny, with a separate puddle rink alongside for anyone who'd rather glide than dodge pucks. The fieldhouse means you can lace up inside and use a washroom, and the whole setup is accessible. Volunteers from the neighbourhood keep the ice going, so conditions follow the weather and there's no supervision on site.
