Floating above downtown Ottawa’s financial core, a silver orb moves back and forth all day atop a reflective glass skyscraper. Welcome to the World Exchange Plaza.

Located among constant heavy traffic in downtown Ottawa, L’Esplanade Laurier is an office complex between Laurier Avenue and O’Connor Street.

Ottawa residents and tourists don’t usually cast a second glance at the East Block of Parliament Hill. Their attention dwells on the more famous Centre Block, home of the Peace Tower, and the country’s main political arena. But the East Block has history and a place in Canadian heritage. Even though it was once threatened with demolition, it still stands tall after 140 years.

At the corner of Cooper and O’Connor streets stands one of Centretown’s largest churches, Dominion-Chalmers United Church.
