From Doors Open Ottawa:

"Named for the mayor of Ottawa at the time, Frank Plant, the building was designed in the popular Collegiate Gothic style, and features stone trim, large multi-paned windows and gabled parapets. Bas-reliefs featuring a naked boy holding a fish distinguishes the gable ends. Constructed to provide much-needed recreational opportunities to the surrounding neighbourhood, the building was originally intended to house a library but this plan was abandoned. The building was condemned in the late 1990s, but a renovated facility, designed by Griffiths, Rankin and Cook opened in 2004. The facility now features a new pool and exercise rooms, while the original building has been converted to a hall for community functions."
