Prior to the establishment of 24 Sussex Drive as the official residence, Prime Ministers had to secure their own accommodations in Ottawa. This presentation will look at some of the residences that were occupied by these men both while they were Members of Parliament and Prime Ministers.

The new Musée régionale de l’Outaouais will be defined by the rich history, heritage and cultural vitality of the region’s broad territory. Creating a new regional museum is a rare opportunity, made even more exciting by housing that museum in a rehabilitated industrial heritage building on the former E.B. Eddy site, in the heart of Gatineau’s core.

This bilingual presentation will provide an overview of the overall project to create a regional museum, and the conservation challenges the project team is facing in adapting the existing building to its proposed new functions.
