Montreal Courthouse, International Style skyscraper in downtown Montreal, Canada
The Montreal Courthouse rises 18 floors above downtown Montreal, featuring clean lines, glass panels, and concrete surfaces in accordance with modernist design principles.
The completion of this judicial building in 1971 marked a substantial transformation in Montreal's architectural landscape during a period of urban development.
The courthouse functions as the primary center for legal proceedings in Montreal, hosting criminal, civil, and family law cases within the Quebec judicial system.
Twenty-six elevators serve the multiple floors of this legal complex, enabling efficient movement for the numerous judges, lawyers, and citizens attending daily proceedings.
The building introduced a new approach to courthouse design in Canada by incorporating extensive glass surfaces that allow natural light into courtrooms and offices.
