Personally, I prefer the location of 90 Georges over the merit.
Although, I'm not sure if the people who can afford living in those condos take public transportation, the transitway is slightly closer to 90 george and a LRT station will be litteraly right in front of it. Also, sto bus routes all start on rideau. Confederation park is as close to the merit as major hill park is to 90 goerges. Shopping wise, I think 90 georges gets the edge with Byward market great for going out and high end shopping which is complemented with casual every day need stores of rideau centre. Of course all of this is not that far from the merit but I wouldn't walk the distance for a last minute one item buy. Elgin is the only option for that.
