Noakes Leave a comment Place d’Armes, Montréal – December 23rd 2011 (renovations recently completed) Looking North-Northwest from the plaza, with the Place d’Armes Hotel at centre and New York Life Insurance Building (1887) at right. Montréal’s Notre Dame Basilica (1824-1843) A focus on the 1948 addition to the Bank of Montreal Head Office, replacing the old Central Post Office. A fascinating minimalist late-Art Deco construction opposite the more elaborate Aldred Building (1927-1931) As you can see, the recently completed renovations now feature a tile motif on the ground demonstrating the area occupied by the original Notre Dame Church Kinda like a snow-globe eh?
