Place du Portage

Place du Portage is a large office complex in the Hull sector of Gatineau, Quebec, Canada, situated along Boulevard Maisonneuve and facing the Ottawa River.

The office complex was built in order to revitalize Hull's decaying downtown core and also to increase the proportion of the federal workforce in the overall National Capital Region.

Although it houses the Federal Government's Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada (DFATD) on floors 4 through 12, it is commercially owned and operated, and not part of Place du Portage.

Place du Portage III consists of 6 connected towers of different heights, spanning both sides of Boulevard Maisonneuve, with an approximate gross surface area of 247,000 square metres (2,660,000 sq ft), making it the largest of the 4 phases.

[3] Starting in 2018, Place du Portage III is undergoing a midlife rehabilitation project that will renew its entire interior, including the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, as well as the building envelope.
