Place Ville Marie
Place Ville Marie (PVM for short) is a large office and shopping complex in central Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Comprising four office buildings and an underground shopping plaza, the main building, 1 Place Ville Marie (formerly Royal Bank Tower from its anchor tenant), is a , 47-storey, cruciform office tower. Built in the International style in 1962 as headquarters for the Royal Bank of Canada, 1 PVM is arguably the city's most distinctive building. The complex is a nexus for Montreal's Underground City, the world's largest, with indoor access to over 1,600 businesses, several subway stations, a suburban transportation terminal, and tunnels extending throughout downtown. A counter-clockwise rotating beacon on the rooftop lights up at night, illuminating the surrounding sky with up to four white horizontal beams that can be seen as far as 50 km away.

The name "Place Ville Marie" is often used to refer to the cruciform building only, but it also applies to four shorter office buildings which were built around it in 1963 and 1964, and to the urban plaza which lies on top of the largest section of the shopping promenade, and between the buildings. From a postal point of view the cruciform tower is "1, Place Ville Marie" and the lesser buildings around it are "2, Place Ville Marie" and so on. The buildings and the plaza have been given many facelifts over the years. In the latest facelift, much of the grey concrete and terrazzo of the plaza was covered with grass, flowers and shrubs. The complex has of space and parking for about 900 vehicles. There are about 70 tenants with 3,000 employees. Via Rail has its headquarters in "3, Place Ville Marie".
