Tremblay station
O-Train light rail station in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Tremblay station ( TRAWM-blay) is an O-Train station on Line 1 in Ottawa, Ontario. It is walking distance from the Ottawa train station, connecting to Via Rail Corridor inter-city rail services. The station opened on September 14, 2019 to replace the former Transitway bus rapid transit station known as Train Station (which closed on June 28, 2015).
Location
Tremblay station is located south of Tremblay Road and directly west of the Via Rail station known as Ottawa station. The Ottawa station entrance is less than a five minute walk from the O-Train Line 1 platforms on Level 1. While the stations are close to each other, the two buildings are not linked and transferring passengers are required to walk outside between them.
North of the station is the Max Keeping Pedestrian Bridge, which crosses Highway 417, allowing access to Ottawa Stadium (a minor-league baseball stadium) as well as the Courtyard by Marriott Ottawa East and Hampton Inn by Hilton Ottawa west of the stadium parking lot. These two hotels are the closest to the station, and are linked to each other by the Ottawa Conference and Event Centre. All of these are accessible within a 12–15 minute walk.

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Tremblay station” as o-Train light rail station in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as o-Train light rail station in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7832872. The first chronological checks are 2019 and 2015.
Architectural summaries often privilege surviving fabric and can understate demolished phases, contested use or displaced communities. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
