    This photo was taken before Parliament burned down. The peace tower is different now.

    This is the former centre block of the Canadian Parliament Buildings. With the exception of the parliamentary library (the conical rooftop seen in the rear of the building), it was completely desstroyed by a fire on February 2, 1916. A new and larger centre block was rebuilt on the same site. It was completed in 1928. In the meantime, Parliament met at the National Museum, located at the other end of Metcalfe Street.

  • Claudette in Ottawa said:
    The Parliament burnt down in 1916, and the only part that survived was the library. The library is in the back of the Parliament buildings and you can just view its steeple in this photo.

    This looks so cool.

    So this is the one that burned down. The photo must have been taken from the East Block though I assume.

    The Wikipedia article on British Empire Economic Conference is a start point; and it is being held in Ottawa, Canada. It seems to be about trying to recover from the Great Depression, and tariffs were being discussed. Even if not wishing to be part of the commonwealth RoI would be very interested in any trade/tariff implications with UK and indeed the Commonwealth and it was probably better to be at that to try to influence decisions than not be at it.

    Was Lemass there too? Looks like him seated 3rd from right. O'Kelly seated 7th from left?
