The Building
Overview
TD Place Arena is Ottawa's indoor arena at Lansdowne Park, historically known as the Ottawa Civic Centre. Opened in 1967, it has long been associated with the Ottawa 67's and now carries added relevance through women's professional hockey. Its connection to TD Place Stadium creates a useful internal cluster around Lansdowne sports infrastructure.
TD Place Arena was built in 1967 as Canada's centennial project for Ottawa and remains the home of the OHL's storied Ottawa 67's. Set into the side of Frank Clair Stadium's south grandstand, it has the most unusual cross-section in Canadian sports — its lower bowl literally sits underneath the football stadium's seating deck above.
It briefly hosted the NHL Ottawa Senators in their first 1992–93 season before they moved to the suburbs.
