Rideau Cottage is a historic, residential building located on the grounds of Rideau Hall in Ottawa, Ontario. The two-level, 22-room Georgian Revival home is owned by the Canadian Crown and has been used as a residence by various persons with association to the Governor General of Canada, including the viceroy's private secretary. It is currently occupied by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his family. ==History== At the direction of Governor General the Viscount Monck, construction on the building by Stewart Taylor and Co, based on a design by architect F.P. Rubidge, began in 1866 and concluded in 1867. Though intended in the early days to serve as the residence of the governor general's secretary, the cottage was later designated for use by the government as an official guest house for visiting dignitaries. On his arrival in Canada in 1883, incoming governor general the Marquess of Lansdowne resided at Rideau Cottage while waiting for Rideau Hall to be vacated by the outgoing Governor General, the Marquess of Lorne. Other residents include Georges Vanier, as Aide-de-camp to Governor General the Viscount Byng of Vimy, and Barbara Uteck, private secretary to the governor general from 2000 to 2006, and her husband, Graham Fraser. Uteck's successor, Stephen Wallace, resided in Rideau Cottage until the weekend of 24-25 October 2015, when he vacated the premises to allow then prime minister-designate Justin Trudeau and his family to live in the house while the traditional official residence of the Prime Minister of Canada, 24 Sussex Drive, was undergoing assessment for repairs and restoration. Rideau Cottage was recognized as a Recognized Federal Heritage Building on 3 October 1986.〔
