Bank of Montreal building that is no longer Bank of Montreal
Directly in front of the Parliament, this was the last commercial building that did not belong to the federal government. The bank moved out in 2005 and now the building is used for government purposes, renamed as Sir John A. Macdonald building.
It was built in 1930 in the style of Beaux-Arts architecture, with the big letters of the name of its original owner carved into the marble and limestone.
