We live the life we're so proud to offer others. Since 1978, we have been located in the historic Davidson House on Bronson Avenue. Saved from demolition and fully restored by Andrex, this 1870s building not only serves as our office space, it stands as an example of what we do best - bringing new life to special buildings in our history. With its ornately shingled gables, decoratively detailed porch, and original interior woodwork, Andrex House is considered to be one of the finest examples of Queen Anne architecture in Ottawa.

Built in the 1860s for Canada's foremost legal and military family, Panet House was converted into apartments in the early 1900s, and by the 1970s the property was slated for demolition. Andrex acquired the property in 1987 and converted it to office space, and in the process reinstated the Mansard roof which had been removed from the building in 1915. Andrex's restoration received national attention and won many awards, and the building now serves as a foreign embassy.

Built as the Carleton Protestant General Hospital in 1873, Wallis House became a seminary in 1925. After being acquired by the Navy in 1943, it was used for a variety of purposes. When declared surplus in 1990, Public Works raised the possibility of its demolition if it could not be sold for an "acceptable" price. This led to demonstrations by citizens and heritage groups, and the building was eventually sold to a group comprised of Andrex Holdings, Wilberfoss Inc., and Domicile for conversion to loft condominiums.

Lumber baron J.R. Booth built Paterson house in 1903 for his daughter Gertrude and her husband Andrew Fleck. Upon Gertrude's death in 1940, the house was bought by Senator Norman Paterson who in turn lived there until his death in 1983. Subsequent owners planned to turn the house into a retirement home, but those plans fell through and the house came close to being lost by the late 1980s. Andrex, in association with Wilberfoss Inc. and Credit Industriel Desjardins salvaged the vandalized and neglected building, and now the restored edifice serves as an embassy.

The Coplan Court Apartments were constructed circa 1913 as a purpose built apartment building, featuring large flats with above average finishes. Extra touches included marble, cut glass, and brass in the entrance hall; leaded galss, large balconies, beautiful carved oak fireplace mantles, and hardwood and ceramic floors in the suites. Located at the corner of Charlotte Street and Daly Avenue, the Coplan Court Apartments housed many belonging to Ottawa's rising new professional class. Andrex played a role in restoring the building to its former grandeur.

Once a single family home for Duncan Graham, a collector of cutoms, this house was later the residence of Toussaint Trudeau, a deputy minister of the Department of Public Works. At some point, this 1860s stone house was converted to apartments and was sorely in need of restorative care by the 1980s. It was then that Andrex redeveloped the property into six elegant cooperative apartments, and to this day Andrex continues to act as property manager for this award winning project.
