  • 레스터 P. 피어슨 빌딩(영어: Lester B. Pearson Building)은 캐나다 정부의 외교통상개발부의 본부이다. 캐나다의 수도 온타리오주 오타와의 로어 타운이라는 동네에 125 서섹스 드라이브에 위치한다. 1968년과 1973년 사이에 지었다. 이 건물은 레스터 B. 피어슨 전직 외교부 장관, 노벨 평화상 수상자, 그리고 총리의 이름에서 따왔다. 금기되는 듯한 모습 때문에 이 건물은 때때로 피어슨 요새(영어: Fort Pearson)라는 별명이 있다. 피어슨 요새라는 이름은 외교통상개발부의 환유로 자주 불린다.

  • The Lester B. Pearson Building is an office building in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located at 125 Sussex Drive in the Lower Town neighbourhood and currently serves as the headquarters of Global Affairs Canada. It was officially opened on 1 August 1973 by Queen Elizabeth II. It is named after Lester B. Pearson, former Prime Minister of Canada and external affairs minister which has earned it the nickname "Fort Pearson". The building was designed by the Toronto-based architectural firm of Webb Zerafa Menkes and is described as "late modern with an influence of Brutalism". The building consists of four "towers" ranging from 4 to 10 storeys, of which three are interconnected from the first to the fifth floor. In 2013, the Department of Public Works and Government Services designated the office complex a Federal Heritage Building for its "historical associations, and its architectural and environmental values". In 2019, work began towards renovating the building, with major changes being made to both the interior and exterior. Walls will be torn down and individual offices removed in favour of a new activity-based working model. The project is estimated to cost $700 million and is scheduled to be completed in 2028. (en)
