Gérard-D.-Levesque Building, Government building in Old Quebec, Canada
The Gérard-D.-Levesque Building stands at 12 Saint-Louis Street with facades on Treasury and Garden Streets, featuring a clock tower and mansard roof.
The structure, built between 1883 and 1887, served as Quebec's courthouse until 1983 before becoming the headquarters of the Ministry of Finance in 1987.
The building interior displays Beaux-Arts style with polychrome decorations, marble walls, coffered ceilings, and a grand elliptical hall with a monumental staircase.
The four-story limestone building houses approximately 375 government employees and contains multiple administrative offices across different floors.
Alfred Hitchcock filmed scenes for his 1952 movie 'I Confess' in the building's former courtroom, which features a two-story space with carved wooden throne.
