This building was once Ottawa's Union Station, the next stop on our tour. Today it isn't used for much, only for government conferences. It seems like a waste of beautiful space :(
Set up like it would be for a G8 meeting. QUITE underwhelming.
There's a section of the Berlin Wall in the lobby. I didn't get a chance to read about *why* exactly it's there. You can see the Brandenbug Gate and the Fernsehturm (tower on the right), I'm not sure what the one on the left is.

Beautiful architecture; you're right, what a waste!
You should research the story behind the Berlin Wall segment being there; obviously it holds special interest for you :)
