Parks & Nature
In 1890, the former city of Saint Henri acquired some land adjacent to Saint Antoine Street to create a small public park. It would become the first public park in Saint Henri.
The square is surrounded by Victorian row houses and triplexes which were built for members of the local elite.
A commission for a monument to the French explorer Jacques Cartier was made shortly thereafter to Quebec sculptor Joseph-Arthur Vincent. In 1893, this statue was installed in the centre of the square. It was designed by Joseph-Arthur Vincent and was unveiled in 1893. It stands 9 metres (30 ft) tall and was made of cast iron.
In the 1990s, the Cartier statue was replaced with a replica.

Mount Royal (French: Mont Royal, IPA: [mɔ̃ ʁʍaˈjal]) is a large volcanic-related hill or small mountain in the city of Montreal, immediately west of Downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Mount Royal gave its name to Montreal.
The hill is part of the Monteregian Hills situated between the Laurentians and the Appalachian Mountains. It gave its Latin name, Mons Regius, to the Monteregian chain. The hill consists of three peaks: Colline de la Croix (or Mont Royal proper) at 233 m (764 ft), Colline d'Outremont (or Mount Murray, in the borough of Outremont) at 211 m (692 ft), and Westmount Summit at 201 m (659 ft) elevation above mean sea level.

This restaurant has a very nostalgic story, it was a dream of the owners: Mackenzie Snow, 28, and sister-in-law Jessica Starnino, 38.
Their pride and joy is called La Luncheonette, a modestly furnished but spotlessly clean soup, sandwich and salad shop at 4271 St-Jacques St. W. in St-Henri.
They’re there morning, noon and night on weekdays, doing everything from cleaning to cooking, and couldn’t be happier.
Snow, who studied at the LaSalle College culinary school and worked in local restaurants and on food trucks since her teens, was the instigator of the project.
She remembers the location from her childhood, when it was known as Perroquet Violet...

Everything Else
The Canada Malting complex was designed by David Jerome Spence (fr), and was built in 1904. On the west side of the complex there are nine violet colored silos.
In May, 2005, as part of the Obselescences event, and to celebrate the one-hundredth anniversary of the edifice's founding, lighting artist Axel Mongenthaler created a light show by mounting several lights on the rooftop of the building.
In 2011, Quebec artist Ian Langohr created a mask inspired by the factory. Langohr created the mask from bits of plastic, rubber and metal found on the streets or in the dark corners of Saint-Henri hardware stores, using techniques he picked up working in a mascot production company.

A multi-purpose stadium in Canada, located at Olympic Park in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve district of Montreal. Built in the mid-1970s as the main venue for the 1976 Summer Olympics, it is nicknamed "The Big O", a reference to both its name and to the doughnut-shape of the permanent component of the stadium's roof. It is also called "The Big Owe" to reference the astronomical cost of the stadium and the 1976 Olympics as a whole.
