Wallis House, Heritage apartment building on Rideau Street, Ottawa, Canada.
The three-story brick structure features high ceilings, large windows, and architectural elements from both Queen Anne Revival and Tudor Revival styles.
Built in 1873 as the Carleton County Protestant Hospital, the building later housed the Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service during World War II.
The structure represents the transformation of medical facilities in Ottawa, marking the shift from small independent hospitals to consolidated healthcare institutions.
The building contains 47 condominium units, each with different layouts, and residents can access the rooftop terrace overlooking the Rideau Street area.
The structure gained its name from Admiral Provo Wallis, a naval commander from the War of 1812, during its military occupation in 1943.
