Construction

The Nunavut Construction Corporation (now NCC Investment Group) was selected to design, build and operate the legislative building. NCC contracted the Montreal architecture firm Arcop to design the building and the design was first presented to the public in December 1997.[3] Construction began in May 1998 and completed in September 1999, with the building officially opened in a ceremony on October 19, 1999.[1][4][5]

NCC Investment Group continues to own and operate the building, which is leased to the territorial government.[6]

Design

The post-modern building also incorporates Inuktituk concept of meeting place or "Qaggiq".[7]

The lobby of the building opens to a two-storey atrium. The mace of the Legislature is stored outside the assembly hall. Ground floor houses the offices of the MLAs and Speaker, whereas the Legislative staff, Office of the Premier and executive staff are located on the second floor.[8]

The Legislature's library is on the third floor.[8]

Remaining government departments are housed at Building 1088, Noble House.
