| Description |
An uncommon view The view from the northeast corner of the National Art Centre’s rooftop terrace (shown in my previous image). The large building occupying much of the frame houses the interim Senate of Canada, to its left (and rear) is Ottawa’s famed landmark hotel, the Chateau Laurier. The Rideau Canal, full with summer boaters, borders the west side of the Senate. The Senate Originally Ottawa’s central train station, this building served until recently as the Government Conference Centre. Extensive renovations have given this historic structure a new lease on life, thanks to the Senate, who are temporarily (if approximately ten years can be considered “temporary”) occupying the building while Parliament Hill’s Centre Block is renovated. Looking at the building, you can still see the grandeur of the early 20th-century style. The newly-built east façade, featuring a five-storey colonnade of limestone pillars and glass panels, follows conservation guidelines by remaining identifiable as a 21st-century addition. It complements the building’s original Beaux-Arts exterior without imitating it. Source: <a href="https://sencanada.ca/en/about/scb/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">sencanada.ca/en/about/scb/</a> |
