Edificio de la Intendencia Metropolitana de Santiago, Government building in civic district of Santiago, Chile.

The four-story neoclassical structure features a corner clock tower, marble staircases, and facades along both Morandé and Moneda streets in Santiago.

Originally built in 1916 as headquarters for El Diario Ilustrado newspaper, the building became the Metropolitan Intendancy offices after the government purchased it in 1928.

The interior displays eight stained glass panels created by painter Pedro Subercaseaux, illustrating different aspects of Chilean national identity and heritage.

The building stands at 93 Morandé Street, at the intersection with Moneda Street, directly across from the Presidential Palace La Moneda.

The German-made clock in the corner dome continues to mark time for Santiago residents after more than 100 years of operation.
