Place Bonaventure

Place Bonaventure is a large commercial and convention center in downtown Montreal featuring 12 floors of concrete architecture. The complex houses retail shops, hotel accommodations, and extensive exhibition spaces for events and meetings.

The building was completed in 1967 and represented one of the world's largest commercial structures of that era. Its brutalist concrete design became an important part of Montreal's architectural heritage.

The place serves as a meeting point for business professionals and visitors attending trade shows and conferences. It functions as a central hub where Montreal's commerce and economic activity converge.

The complex connects directly to Montreal's underground city network and Central Station, making it easy to reach. The Bonaventure Metro station and various transportation options provide convenient access from different parts of the city.

The building operates with its own postal code prefix, making it one of the few structures in Canada with this distinction. This reflects the scale and importance of the complex within the city.
