  • William Zeckendorf, Place Ville-Marie, and the Making of Modern Montreal Don Nerbas

Its cruciform office tower transformed the city’s DOI: https://doi.org/10.7202/1031287ar skyline and marked the removal of the city’s financial district from St. James Street to the new alley of skyscrapers on Dorchester Boulevard (now Boulevard See table of contents René Lévesque). Earlier studies have emphasized the role of modern planning in the making of Place Ville-Marie and other post–Second World War urban redevelopment projects. This article advances an interpretation of Place Publisher(s) Ville-Marie as a capital investment in the “production of space.” The project was a highly speculative effort by its developer, William Zeckendorf, to utilize Urban History Review / Revue d'histoire urbaine monumental architecture to sell prestige to corporate tenants. This took place in specific, historically contingent, and politically contested circumstances. In a ISSN period when modernization was a powerful and popular idea, Zeckendorf cultivated a myth about Place Ville-Marie that accommodated and absorbed 0703-0428 (print) nationalist aspirations within Montreal and Canada that were fixed upon the 1918-5138 (digital) panacea of modernization. While Zeckendorf’s financial woes and the overcapacity of office space that Place Ville-Marie helped create contradicted Explore this journal the project’s mythic image, Place Ville-Marie also embodied new capitalist values and the rise of new capitalist forces in the city.

It is also the home of a vibrant and growing congregation, progressive liturgy within the Anglican tradition, thoughtful sermons, an extensive music program, and an active ministry both to our community and to others in need. As both a downtown church and the mother church of the Diocese of Montreal, we have a special mission. We have a core of long-time parishioners along with a somewhat transient population of people in the city for a limited time, as well as tourists. Due to our proximity to four universities, and thanks to a special effort in recent years to attract them, we have a small but active group of students who worship with us and meet regularly for fellowship and Bible study.
