Facing Parliament Hill in Ottawa, this Second Empire sandstone edifice, designed by Thomas Fuller and completed in 1889, serves as the working headquarters of Canada's executive branch, housing both the Office of the Prime Minister and the Privy Council Office. Originally named the Langevin Block after the Father of Confederation and cabinet minister Hector-Louis Langevin, the building was renamed in 2017 by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in recognition of Langevin's role in establishing the residential school system. Designated a federal heritage building and national historic site, the structure remains a prominent symbol of Canadian governance and institutional memory.
