1988 – National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario
Architect: Moshe Safdie
Celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2005, the National Gallery of Canada is a striking landmark against the city’s skyline. The glass forms are evocative of the chateau style of many public buildings in the city. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie and opened in 1988 at its current location on Sussex Drive, this treasure house in granite and glass is the home of Canada’s national art collection.
