East Block
THE EAST BLOCK on Parliament Hill was built in two stages.
The main section went up in the mid-1800s at the same time
as the West Block and the original Centre Block. Then, in
1910, a wing was added at the rear. The purpose, style and
appearance of the 1910 wing were quite different from those
of the earlier structures. Today's conservation and
renovation work aims to preserve the distinctive
characteristics of both sections.
