Description From Owner:

Pop. 2,191. In the Reg. Mun. of Ottawa-Carleton. A residential suburb of Ottawa on a height of land overlooking the Ottawa R. north of the City of Vanier.
The area was first known as McKay's Bush and was part of an extensive land grant made in 1832 to Rideau Canal contractor Thomas McKay.
In 1838 McKay built a mansion he called Rideau Hall, which since 1865 has been the residence of the governor general of Canada.
In 1925 the community was incorporated as a village and named Rockliffe Park after the local landscape.
It is one of the most exclusive residential areas in Canada; there are only 24 km. (15 mi) of roads, no industry, no commerce, no churches, and no apartments.
During regional municipal restructuring in the 1960s and 1970s Rockcliffe Park was the only municipality to retain its village status within a regional municipality.
