Guaranteed Pure Milk bottle

The Guaranteed Pure Milk bottle stands 10 meters high on Lucien-L'Allier Street, constructed of riveted steel with a capacity of 250,000 liters of water.

Architects Hutchison, Wood & Miller designed this Art Deco structure in 1930 as an advertising element for the Guaranteed Pure Milk Company, which operated until 1990.

The steel bottle represents early twentieth-century industrial architecture and advertising methods, marking the intersection of commerce and urban design in Montreal.

Located at coordinates 45.4955785, -73.5718708, the tower received extensive repairs in 2009 through private donations and volunteer work totaling 100,000 dollars.

This six-tonne water tower, built by Dominion Bridge Company, maintains its original form as a giant milk bottle, appearing in the Hollywood film Red 2.
