Description: The Transportation Building in downtown Ottawa, Canada. Built by C. Jackson Booth, son of lumber baron J.R. Booth in 1916, it became Ottawa's city hall in 1931 when the purpose-built city hall on Elgin Street was destroyed by fire. Since 1958, the building has served as office space for federal and provincial civil servants. In the early 1980s, the building was connected to the Rideau Centre.
