The Death of the Golden Square Mile? Understanding the Transformation of an Urban District, 1945-1985
|
| Abstract |
The author examines the transformation and decline, starting in the decades following the end of Second World War, of Montreal's once-prestigious "Square Mile" from an elite residential neighbourhood into a part of the city's central business district. By the 1960s, the country’s business elite that had called Montreal home for over a century had either decamped to Toronto or moved to the neighbouring and less pretentious Montreal suburb of Westmount.
