It is located in District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City downtown, bounded by Pasteur, Lý Tự Trọng, Đồng Khởi, and Lê Thánh Tôn streets, with its front facade facing Nguyễn Huệ Boulevard square. The building houses the office of the city's Chairman of the People's Committee, Ho Chi Minh City People's Council and various city government departments including Transportation, Natural Resources & Environment, Industry & Trade and Home Affairs within the block.
