This attractive Art Deco
building, in Place Saint-Henri in Montreal, is
the Number 23 Barracks which replaced an
earlier version built in 1883 but demolished
in 1930. That building was home to a
city hall, police station and fire
station. As you can see the present
building is still an active fire station.
The building is decorated
with a number of bas-relief sculptures
reflecting its functions.
On the back of the building there are a number
of sculptures which appear to be a warning to
those who plan to break the law.
