Terrasses de la Chaudière is a complex of government office buildings in Gatineau, Quebec, Canada. The complex was built in 1978 as part of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau's initiative to see more federal workers based in the Quebec side of the Ottawa River.

Today its three towers hold some 6,500 federal government office workers and houses various government departments; Environment Canada, Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, Canadian Heritage, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), and several other government entities.
