Definition
At its greatest extent Riverview is bounded roughly on the west by the Rideau River, on the north by Industrial Avenue, on the east by St. Laurent Boulevard, and on the south by Smyth Road. The Riverview Park Community Association has the Queensway as the north boundary, and the Canadian National Railway line as the western boundary. However, this would include the neighbourhood of Eastway Gardens which is much separated from the rest of the neighbourhood. They leave out the area on the west side of railway line, perhaps because it is in a different city ward. Riverview is located adjacent to Old Ottawa East on the west (across the Rideau River), on the north by Eastway Gardens, on the south by Alta Vista and on the east by Sheffield Glen.

Famous quotes containing the word definition:
“The very definition of the real becomes: that of which it is possible to give an equivalent reproduction.... The real is not only what can be reproduced, but that which is always already reproduced. The hyperreal.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“The man who knows governments most completely is he who troubles himself least about a definition which shall give their essence. Enjoying an intimate acquaintance with all their particularities in turn, he would naturally regard an abstract conception in which these were unified as a thing more misleading than enlightening.”
—William James (18421910)
“... if, as women, we accept a philosophy of history that asserts that women are by definition assimilated into the male universal, that we can understand our past through a male lensif we are unaware that women even have a historywe live our lives similarly unanchored, drifting in response to a veering wind of myth and bias.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
