CN Tower is an office tower in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It stands at 111 metres (364 feet) or 26 storeys tall . It was western Canada's tallest office tower when completed in 1966 & was designed by Abugov & Sunderland.

The building's basement once housed Edmonton's main passenger railway station, until the Canadian National railway tracks leading to Downtown Edmonton were removed in 1998. Since then, passenger trains serving Edmonton have stopped at the VIA Rail Canada terminal situated near the Edmonton City Centre Airport.
