The Fairlawn Centre (formerly Fairlawn Plaza) is a strip mall along Carling Avenue in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The mall opened in 1961 when the plaza's original tenants were Steinberg's grocery store and J. Pascal Hardware. Miracle Mart was also one of the early tenants.Canadian Tire was a tenant from December 1974 until it closed in March 2008 and moved to a bigger location 2 kilometres east on Carling Avenue. The Royal Bank of Canada also had a branch at the plaza. Fairlawn Diner, a dry cleaners, and a beauty salon and barbers shop which all closed during renovations in 2009–10. Business had been severely affected when Canadian Tire closed. The expansion of Carlingwood Mall directly across Carling Avenue, which itself had many of the same types of retail stores as Fairlawn Plaza, may be one reason for the mall's dwindling customer base. The site was partially redeveloped in the early 2010s. The expanded Fairlawn Centre now includes Harvey's, Swiss Chalet, H&R Block and Bridgehead Coffee.

Whitehaven (also spelled White Haven) is a neighbourhood located in Bay Ward in the west end of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, about 10 kilometres west of downtown.

The population of the neighbourhood is about 2350 (2011 Census) Whitehaven was developed on the lands of Fox farm starting in the 1950s. The Fox farm homestead can still be found on Fox Crescent in the north part of the neighbourhood with its windmill tower now shaded by a large tree. Originally the east side of the neighbourhood was subdivided into large lots, typically 50 by 50 metres. In the 1960s, the west side was developed with smaller lots but mostly large custom homes. At the same time, many lots in the east side of the neighbourhood were subdivided and infill housing was built. Subdivisions have continued through to today, giving Whitehaven a very eclectic housing character. Whitehaven Crescent was built up throughout the mid 1960s as the area's namesake. The south west side of the neighbourhood contains a large park with a playground, with schools including D. Roy Kennedy Public School and Woodroffe High School.

Both shopping centres are serviced extensively by OC Transpo with Lincoln Fields being serviced by the Lincoln Fields Transit Station on the Transitway Whitehaven is also connected locally to a network of bike paths with direct access to downtown Ottawa.
