Canada Building (Windsor)
The Canada Building is an Art Deco office tower built in 1930[2] in downtown Windsor, Ontario. It stands at 14 storeys and stands on Ouellette Avenue between University Avenue and Park Street. It should not be confused with the nearby similarly designed Paul Martin Sr. Building, or the Bell Canada Building, located on Goyeau Avenue, which looks nearly identical and is nearly the same in height.
