Canadian Embasy

The Canadian Embassy is on the corner of 4th and Pennsylvania in a line between the Capital Building and the White House. The building was designed by Vancouver architect Arthur Erickson and the entrance has twelve pillars for the 10 provinces and 2 territories at the time of construction. One of the territories has now split into two. At the entrance there is a huge Bill Reid carving like the one at the Vancouver Airport and is his largest carving.
