Vibrant Communities

Designed for life

We believe that a community is more than a place to live — it’s a place to grow and thrive. And, after creating many of Ottawa’s most beloved neighbourhoods, we understand what families need for their overall health and wellbeing, like social connections, outdoor enjoyment, access to amenities, and nearby schools.

Master-planned for you

Every detail in our dozens of communities — both past and present — across Ottawa have been carefully master-planned to ensure you have convenient access to what you need most, from proximity to schools and parks to easy access to amenities and shopping.

Beautiful spaces to live and play

We believe that parks are essential to the wellbeing of a community, which is why we work closely with the City of Ottawa to design ours to include play structures, sports fields, and green gathering spaces so your neighbourhood is as functional as it is beautiful.

A Trusted Partner

Growing together

After years of building homes, communities and trust in several cities in Canada and the U.S., our dedication to residents and their wellbeing has remained constant. We believe that our responsibility to community extends way beyond those we build and is an integral part of who we are, and what we stand for.

Minto Through the Years

Cheo Ribbon Cutting

Building possibilities since 2001

Since 2001, we have been a proud supporter of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) by building and designing the grand prize Minto Dream Home for the CHEO Dream of a Lifetime Lottery. Our partnership with CHEO is an important part of our commitment to community, while constantly striving to build strong, healthy communities for the people who live in them.

OUR COMMITMENT TO CHEO

The Orléans Health Hub

The Minto Group is proud to be an official Building Partner of the Orléans Health Hub, having donated $250,000 to support the development of the Mental Health and Wellness program. This partnership, commemorated with a mural, is our way of ensuring more residents can get the support they need.
