George Browne (November 5, 1811 – November 19, 1885) was an Irish-born Canadian architect who designed some of the finest buildings in Canada of his time. He was born in Belfast and was said to be the son of an Irish architect who was also named George Browne. Browne designed houses in Quebec City and Montreal during the 1830s. He designed buildings in Kingston after it became the capital of the Canadas in 1841 and then moved to Montreal after the capital was moved there. His son George was a prominent architect active in Winnipeg and his son John James was also an architect active in Montreal.
