Riverview is a Jacobean manor located at 432 boulevard Alexandre-Taché in Hull, Gatineau, Quebec, originally built in 1865 by lumber baron David Moore. This sprawling historic house represents Tudor Revival architecture and later became the residence of fellow lumber magnate Edward S. Skead and his family. Following the First World War, the property's fortunes shifted dramatically: it operated as the Homestead Inn nightclub before serving as the Ville-Joie-Ste-Thérèse orphanage from 1939, then as a nursery until 1972. Today classified as a heritage immovable, Riverview houses the Gatineau campus of the Conservatoire de musique et d'art dramatique du Québec.
