World Exchange Plaza, Office complex in Downtown Ottawa, Canada

The World Exchange Plaza contains two towers connected by a retail concourse, spanning an entire city block between Metcalfe and O'Connor Streets.

Construction occurred in two phases, with Tower I completed in 1991 at 84 meters tall and Tower II finished in 2001 at 70 meters tall.

The eastern section of the building incorporates architectural elements that reference the design patterns of the Roman Colosseum.

The complex includes an underground parking facility with 1,100 spaces and direct access to Parliament LRT Station for convenient transportation options.

The plaza previously displayed five full-size models of Arctic whales from the Canadian Museum of Nature until their return in 2021.
