The McCall MacBain Arts Building (also known as the Arts Building, formerly the McGill College Building) is a landmark building located at 853 Sherbrooke Street West, in the centre of the McGill University downtown campus in Montreal, Quebec. The Arts Building is the oldest building on campus, and was designed in Classical style by John Ostell beginning in 1839.

Today the Arts Building is made up of three distinct wings around a central block: Dawson Hall (east), Molson Hall (west), and Moyse Hall (north), and currently houses the Department of French Language and Literature, Department of English and the Department of Art History and Communication Studies. The building also hosts lectures for several other departments from the Faculty of Arts.In April 2019, the building was renamed the McCall MacBain Arts Building in recognition of a private donation of C$200 million, the largest single gift to a university in Canadian history, from the McCall MacBain Foundation.

The Mount Royal Club is a private social club in Montreal, Quebec. The club was founded as a gentlemen's club in 1899 by a breakaway group from the Saint James's Club, but in 1990 became mixed-sex. In its prime, the Mount Royal was Canada's most prestigious club and was an integral part of Montreal's Golden Square Mile society. During the age when Montreal was the center of commerce in Canada, the club's membership counted many of the country's most powerful executives, bankers, financiers, and industrialists. The Mount Royal's clubhouse on Sherbrooke Street was completed in 1906 and was designed by McKim, Mead & White of New York. In the latter half of the 20th century, the Mount Royal underwent a significant upheaval. Until the 1960s, the club's membership was almost entirely of English or Scottish descent, which mirrored the Protestant nature of Montreal business culture. In the wake of the Quiet Revolution, the commercial center of Canada shifted from Montreal to Toronto. Consequently, much of the city's Anglophone élite migrated out of Quebec, which deprived the club of its historic base. In recent decades, the club has become more Francophone and less associated with Canadian corporate power. Although the Mount Royal remains a prestigious institution, it no longer has the stature it did in its early history.

The Three Graces, also known as Carytid Fountain Group, Friendship Fountain, The Three Bares, and Three Bares Fountain, is an outdoor fountain and sculpture by Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, installed in 1931 at Montreal's McGill University, in Quebec, Canada.
