Aldred Building, Art Deco skyscraper in Old Montreal, Canada.
The Aldred Building incorporates limestone, aluminum spandrels, and marble features across its 23 floors, rising to a height of 97 meters.
Construction of the building began in 1929 and finished in 1931, with an initial cost of $2,851,076, responding to new height regulations in Montreal.
The structure includes setbacks at specific floors to mirror the adjacent Notre-Dame Basilica, integrating religious architectural elements into its commercial design.

The building sits on a concrete foundation mat beneath street level and features terra-cotta tiles throughout its steel frame for fire protection.
