Gloucester-Southgate Ward (Ward 10) is a city ward located in
Ottawa,
Ontario. Located in the city's south end, the ward includes
Gloucester Glen east of the
Rideau River, most of the
Ottawa International Airport,
CFSU Uplands,
Blossom Park, Greenboro,
Hunt Club Park, portions of
Heron Gate south of
Walkley Road, the Ottawa South/Hawthorne Industrial Park and rural areas west of Anderson Road and north of
Leitrim. Previously, the ward included the community of
Riverside South located south of the airport but in a ward reorganization, the growing community was included in the new ward of
Gloucester-South Nepean.
Prior to amalgamation, this area was covered by Southgate Ward on Ottawa City Council and Gloucester South Ward on Gloucester City Council. Southgate Ward was known as Billings Ward from 1980 to 1994, and Gloucester Ward prior to that. The ward was created in 1950, when the area was annexed from Gloucester Township. From 1952 to 1956 it was part of Ward 1.
