Where In Ottawa LXXV

It's been so long that I've all but forgotten about it.

The last time I ran a Where In Ottawa? photo challenge was in May, 2019. The number of viewers to those posts was dwindling and fewer people participated, so after about eight years of running it, I stopped.

But lately, I've noticed that people are looking at the old Where In Ottawa? posts, almost as though someone was playing the game on their own. In fact, one of my old posts has had so much attention that it's become one of the most popular posts of this past month.

For those of you who haven't played it, I would post a photo that I shot from somewhere in the Ottawa area; sometimes, even crossing the border into Gatineau, Québec. The challenge was to leave a comment on the post with a guess to the location.

The first person to leave the correct guess would be awarded a copy of my novel, Songsaengnim: A Korea Diary. On a couple of occasions, some businesses got in on the deal: Mill Street Brew Pub offered a dinner for two; loveOttawa donated a t-shirt; and even the Ottawa Marriott provided a one-night stay in their downtown hotel.

I've run out of extra copies of my book (I only have one, for myself) and I doubt I have the kind of pull anymore to get others to provide a giveaway, but I was wondering if there was enough interest to bring the contest back, despite the lack of a giveaway.

Thoughts?

I'm going to see whether there's enough interest to bring my photo challenge back, so here's a one-off.

I've got a photo that was taken somewhere in Ottawa. If you recognize the spot, or even if you only think you know where it might be, leave your guess in the Comments section, below. You can guess as often as you like.

Each day, I'll leave a clue about where this place is. If, by 6 pm, on Thursday, the correct location has not been located, I'll let you know, on Friday, where it is. If the correct location is found, I'll still share on Friday but I'll name the winner of the challenge.

Sound good? I'm a bit rusty, but here goes:

Think you know Ottawa? Prove it!

And good luck. Happy Monday!
