LEGO Civic Hospital - Ottawa, ON

Waymark Code: WMN7EW

While my brand new grandson was busy growing at his first residence, the General Campus of the Ottawa Hospital, I got in to a routine exploration of the area. Driving parents and/or grandmother to the hospital at least once each day, I was able to waymark away the time between delivering trips and returning trips. Grandson then transferred to the Civic Campus where I've been slow to start a new routine.

Grandson's room was on the fourth floor, not counting the main floor as floor one. However, his ward is located in the wing of the hospital not yet built for the 1924 campus represented by the LEGO construction.

Seeking examples of waymarking categories new to me, I found this hopeful entry for the LEGO sculpture category.

Co-ordinates are for the main entrance to the Civic Hospital. Located across from the Central Experimental Farm, northeast of the intersection Parkdale and Carling, the main building was open to patients late in 1924. Ninety years later, Doctor Lucie Filteau has created a LEGO representation of that building. Her LEGO construction project was an excuse to spend more time with her two young sons.
