Maison de Radio-Canada (French pronunciation: [mɛzɔ̃ də ʁadjo kanada]; English: CBC House), located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, was the broadcast headquarters, studios and master control for all French-language radio and television services of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (known in French as Société Radio-Canada/SRC) including its flagship station CBFT-DT. It is also the main studio for Montreal's local English-language CBC services (CBMT-DT, CBME-FM, and CBM-FM) and the headquarters of Radio Canada International, the CBC's digital international broadcasting service.
The street address of Maison de Radio-Canada is 1400 René Lévesque Boulevard East, named for former premier René Lévesque who was once a reporter and commentator for the CBC. The building is situated near the studios of CTV (CFCF-DT), Noovo (CFJP-DT), RDS, RDS Info, MétéoMédia, LCN, and TVA (CFTM-DT) which are at the intersection of Papineau Avenue.
The analogous facility for the CBC's English-language networks is the Canadian Broadcasting Centre in Toronto. The CBC's corporate headquarters for both languages are in Ottawa at the CBC Ottawa Broadcast Centre.
