Windsor Station, National historic railway station in Ville-Marie, Canada

The gray limestone building on Canadiens-de-Montréal Avenue features wide-arched openings, vertically grouped windows, and a fifteen-story tower added in 1916.

Windsor Station operated as the Canadian Pacific Railway headquarters from 1889 to 1996, facilitating the transportation of numerous immigrants throughout Canada.

The Angel of Victory statue within the station commemorates 1,116 Canadian Pacific Railway employees who died during World War I.

The station connects to the RÉSO underground network and contains office spaces, restaurants, and event venues in the former passenger concourse.

The 1909-1914 additions combined Romanesque Revival and Château architectural elements, marking an evolution in Canadian Pacific building designs.
