From Doors Open Ottawa:

"

"A comfortable Second Empire style house built in 1878. This fine residence in the heart of Ottawa was home to two prime ministers, Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the Rt. Honourable William Lyon Mackenzie King. For more than 50 years, Laurier and King received visiting kings, queens, politicians and statesmen here. This spacious residence is filled with a collection of furniture and memorabilia spanning over half a century of occupancy by two of Canada’s prominent political figures."
