Located in Montreal's Ville-Marie district, the Shaughnessy House is a Second Empire–style mansion built in 1874 by architect William Tutin Thomas. Despite being classified as a semi-detached bourgeois residence, it stands as a nationally significant landmark—designated both a classified heritage immovable and a national historic site of Canada. The building exemplifies the architectural ambitions of Montreal's nineteenth-century mercantile elite, its period styling and craftsmanship reflecting the prosperity of the era in which it was constructed.
