List of tallest buildings in Ottawa–Gatineau

This is a list of the tallest buildings in the Ottawa—Gatineau urban area that are over 90 m (295 ft) tall. Despite its size, Ottawa–Gatineau does not have many skyscrapers that exceed 100 m compared to similar sized Canadian cities, Edmonton and Calgary. Until 1965, buildings in Ottawa were limited to 45.5 metres (149 ft) so that the 92 m tall Peace Tower at the centre of the Parliament Buildings could dominate the skyline. The National Capital Region has a complicated system of protected view planes that are governed by the National Capital Commission and adhered to by the City of Ottawa and Ville de Gatineau. Protected view planes limit the height of buildings in certain areas of the downtown cores of Ottawa and Gatineau to protect the prominence of the Parliament Buildings. The tallest building in Ottawa—Gatineau is the 45-storey, 143 m tall Claridge Icon located in Little Italy. The tallest building approved for construction in Ottawa—Gatineau is the 65-storey, 234 m tall 900 Albert — Tower 1, part of the three-tower 900 Albert Development located in Centretown West.
