Hog's Back Bridge is an asymmetrical swing bridge in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Located at the intersection of Mooney's Bay and the Hog's Back locks, it crosses the Rideau Canal and carries 2 lanes of Hog's Back Road and a sidewalk. The swing bridge operates from May to October when boats exceeding 9 feet (2.7 m) in height need to pass via the canal underneath.The bridge is hydraulically controlled. Two wedge cylinders secure the bridge and raise the overhanging edge in place at road level. When the bridge is to be opened, four barriers are lowered to block traffic from entering the bridge deck. The cylinders are withdrawn which lowers the bridge down onto a circular rail track. This movement also takes the weight of the bridge off of the west side bearings. Once the limit switches sense the wedge cylinders are fully retracted, the bridge is pivoted. The hydraulic power unit has 2 main pumps which can be run independently or together, and one small backup pump to be run off a generator if need be. The bridge was closed for extensive rehabilitation from August 2019 to October 2020. Despite the repairs, the bridge had to be closed two separate times between June and July 2021 due to issues with the hydraulic system.

The Hog's Back Falls, officially known as the Prince of Wales Falls, but rarely referred to by this name, are a series of artificial waterfalls on the Rideau River in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The falls are located just north of Mooney's Bay and the point where the Rideau Canal splits from the Rideau River. Prior to the construction of the Rideau Canal, these were a gentle set of rapids originally known as Three Rock Rapids. The name Hog's Back came into use shortly before canal construction. Civil Engineer John MacTaggart, in 1827, described them as "a noted ridge of rocks, called the Hog’s Back, from the circumstances of raftsmen with their wares [timber rafts] sticking on it in coming down the stream." These rapids were about 600 metres (2 000 feet) in length with a drop of about 1.8 metres (6 feet). They were navigable by canoe; no portage was required. As part of his concept for a slackwater navigation system, Lt. Colonel John By's design for the Rideau Canal called for a large dam to be raised in this location. It would divert water from the Rideau River into the artificially-created section of the canal leading to the Ottawa locks. It would also flood the Three Island Rapids located upstream (the head of present-day Mooney's Bay marks the foot of these rapids). The building of this dam provided one of the greatest construction challenges (it collapsed three times during construction) of the Rideau Canal, but when completed in 1831, it flooded the Rideau River at that point by 12.5 metres (41 feet). To accommodate the natural flow of the Rideau River and to prevent damage from spring flooding, a large wastewater weir was constructed. The water from this flows through a channel that was excavated in the eastern bank of the Rideau River. This created the Hog's Back Falls that we see today. The head of the original rapids is now buried beneath the canal dam, but the lower section of the rapids can still be seen today. This location marks where the route of the Rideau Canal leaves the Rideau River and enters a manmade canal leading to the Ottawa locks. A series of locks lowers boats from this location to the Ottawa River.

Rideau View (also spelled Rideauview) is a sub-neighbourhood of Carleton Heights in River Ward, in the west-end of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, located near the Rideau River. It is bordered by Meadowlands Drive to the south, Claymor Avenue to the west and Dynes Road to the north. Debra Avenue is the main road that runs through the neighbourhood and there is some residential housing on Eiffel Avenue. Some of parts of the neighbourhoods are east of Prince of Wales Drive and runs parallel along the Rideau River. The area is also located close to the former city of Nepean. A major feature of the neighbourhood is a low-income housing project designed and built by the Ottawa Housing corporation. There are four high-rise condominiums on Prince of Wales at the corner of Dynes and Meadowlands. The population of this neighbourhood according to the Canada 2011 Census was 1880 The area is home to a diverse population of Black, Asian and Arab residents. Most people in the neighbourhood live under the poverty line and there is some crime in the area. A crime wave hit the area in the late 1980s and early 1990s when the neighbourhood was notorious for gun violence and drug trafficking. To prevent the neighbourhood from becoming plagued by crime, the police chief held a meeting with city officials to discuss options for decreasing crime in the neighbourhood. An increased police presence and undercover operations helped to reduce crime in the area and today the area is somewhat stable. A youth centre was opened by the Ottawa Police Service to provide alternatives for the youth to help them stay away from resorting to a life of crime and violence. The Debra-Dynes family house was opened as a community outreach centre and is located in the heart of the neighbourhood. The Greek Festival is held every August at the Greek Orthodox Church on Prince of Wales. It is home to Rideauview Bible Church, a Greek Orthodox church, the Ukrainian Catholic Shrine and Temple Israel (a Synagogue).
