It is also a story of Canada\u2019s North and South. After opening in 1958 close to the city\u2019s airport, the Southway Inn became a cherished place for people travelling to and from the Arctic, especially the Baffin Island region. More than just a place to stay, the Southway also served as a wayfinder for new arrivals trying to make sense of Ottawa\u2019s urban geography, as Inuit men, women, and children travelled for work, school, and healthcare. A \u2018home away from home,\u2019 the Southway served as a distinctive space that linked families and communities together. Today, Ottawa has the largest urban Inuit population south of the Arctic, including many whose first relationship to the city began with a stay at the Southway Inn. This project involves the installation of an original piece of commemorative artwork, created by the Canadian Inuk sculptor,<a href=\"https:\/\/couzyn.ca\/\"> Couzyn van Heuvelen<\/a>. That piece in now visible at the former Southway Inn (now the Waterford Retirement Residence) following its unveiling on 07 September 2017.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inuitartfoundation.org\/iad\/artist\/Mosha-Folger\">Mosha Folger<\/a>, an Inuk filmmaker who was once a visitor to the Southway Inn himself, directed a documentary film about both this \u201clost story\u201d and also Couzyn\u2019s journey to create a commemoration of it.
