Place Montreal Trust.
Made by Steve Brandon
Montreal's Place Montreal Trust was opened in 1988 as part of the Cadillac-Fairview chain of shopping centres, but, in 1995, it was sold to Ivanhoe (now the Ivanhoe-Cambridge corporation). It has fewer stores than the next-door (across McGill-College Avenue) Centre Eaton, but it has several stores with a much larger surface area than anything in the Centre Eaton, including Zara, Indigo Books and Music, and Mexx. The Mexx store takes up the space that used to be occupied by the ill-fated Montreal Planet Hollywood restaurant. By the time Planet Hollywood made it to Montreal, they were obviously out of pairs of Dorothy's ruby slippers or copies of Darth Vader's helmet, so the collection of movie memorabilia on display left much to be desired. I never went up inside the restaurant proper, but the Sainte Catherine-level entrance had a few items, with the two things I remember well being a model house from the Christian Slater disaster movie, Hard Rain, and some sort of rubber pig mask thing from Space Truckers. Look, honey, a model house from Hard Rain! Somehow, just because of seeing that here, I must feel like paying $20 for a hamburger. Place Montreal Trust is also where the downtown Montreal Marks & Spencer store used to be located before the chain folded in Canada in 1999. I didn't care much for their St. Michael's clothing line, but I do miss their British food items, especially the frozen shrimp curry, the toffees in the blue wrappers, and the shrimp cocktail chips. I can buy other brands of those at other stores in Canada, but they don't taste as good as M&S's.

Used to be surrounded by storefronts the church had to lease to to pay bills. Only now is it being exposed again for the first time in many years. www.hour.ca/news/brief.aspx?iIDArticle=836
