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

A community-flooded puddle rink with no boards, lights or building of any kind, so it's a daylight-only stop — lace up in the car and skate until the sun goes. Best treated as a quick, casual glide close to home rather than a destination for a long session.
