BRIDGEBURG STATION
The college classrooms and clinic are located at numbers 85 & 87 Jarvis Street, Bridgeburg Station - the historical downtown of Fort Erie. This area dates back to 1873 with the building of the International Railroad Bridge linking Fort Erie and Buffalo. Today Jarvis Street, overlooking the Niagara River, is a mere five kilometers from the Peace Bridge which was built in 1927 to commemorate 100 years of peace between Canada and the United States. Like many North American downtown communities, it is working to recreate itself in the face of migration to the suburbs. Bridgeburg Station is an ideal location for Ongiara College, housing commercial & professional businesses as well as many community services: the Aboriginal Centre, the Adult Training Centre, Big Brothers and Sisters and a Multicultural Centre which assists new immigrants and refugees to Canada. It is centrally located offering ease of access to the clinic and possibilities for wider involvement in the community. There is plenty of parking available within a couple of minutes’ walk of the college.
