#UrbMTL An oasis in the city!!! This square is located on the site of the city's former reservoir, which was functional until 1852, and replaced by the McTavish reservoir, after the Great Fire of 1852. The square was created in 1876, and named for two businessmen, brothers Emmanuel and Jean-Baptiste Saint-Louis. The Project for Public Spaces has called the square "the closest thing to a European neighborhood square you'll find this side of the Atlantic."
