About 265 Ottawa Street N
Welcome to 265 Ottawa Street North, a rare investment opportunity in the heart of Hamilton's iconic Ottawa Street Business Improvement Area. Known as the city's Destination for Inspiration, Ottawa Street North is home to a vibrant mix of shops, antiques, home décor, restaurants, and services, supported by strong daily foot traffic and active BIA promotions. This property offers approximately 10,000 sq. ft. of flexible commercial space, ideal for subdivision into multiple retail bays, professional offices, or a hybrid mix of tenants.
