About Mechanicsville
What we can say with great certainty is that Mechanicsville has a lot of rich history to share and came from blue-collar roots. Mechanicsville is located west of and right next to Tunney's Pasture, west of Lebreton Flats and north of Hintonburg. On a map, you'll find it south of the Ottawa River, west of the O-Train Trillium Line, north of Scott Street, and east of Parkdale Avenue. A population of approximately 2,200 (at 2011 Census) and historically a working-class neighbourhood, Mechanicsville has seen much improvement over the years and is now seen as a hip and trendy place in which to live, work and play.
One of the largest employers, the Government of Canada complex, Tunney's Pasture, is named after Anthony Tunney, an Irish immigrant, who lived on Mechanicsville's Lyndale Avenue for the last 25 years of his life, which was his second home, after his first was destroyed in a fire. It's a snapshot into life in the 1890s. He was one of the first to purchase a lot on what is now Parkdale Avenue, overlooking Tunney's Pasture. He used to graze his and other lumber merchants' animals on what was then a vacant lot and the name unofficially became known as and adopted Tunney's Pasture.
