Square Dorchester

  • Address: Bordered by blvd. René-Lévesque and rues Peel, Metcalfe, and McTavish, Downtown, Montréal, QC | Map It

Fodor's Review:

On sunny summer days you can join the office workers, store clerks, and downtown shoppers who gather in Square Dorchester to eat lunch under the trees and perhaps listen to an open-air concert. If there are no vacant benches or picnic tables, you can still find a place to sit on the steps at the base of the dramatic monument to the dead of the Boer War. Other statues honor Scottish poet Robert Burns (1759-96) and Sir Wilfrid Laurier (1841-1919), Canada's first French-speaking prime minister.
