The Molson Bank building on Saint Jacques Street in Old Montreal.

The Molson Bank Building was built at the corner of St. Peter and St. James streets (now rue Saint-Pierre and rue Saint-Jacques) in Old Montreal as the headquarters of the Molson Bank in 1866 by order of founder William Molson (1793-1875). It was the first building in Montreal to be built in the Second Empire style. ^[1]

The bank later merged with Bank of Montreal in 1925.
