Rideau Heights is a 32-hectare area in northern Kingston, Ontario consisting primarily of row-housing and low-rise apartment buildings. The area is physically isolated and economically disadvantaged.[1] Kingston's Housing Authority has identified Rideau Heights as a pilot project for improving the area with the intent of applying the lessons learned to other social housing sites throughout the city.[2]

A regeneration strategy is being developed for Rideau Heights. The project incorporates a public and stakeholder engagement strategy to ensure that residents have opportunities to contribute.[3][4][5][6]
