On the wall of the passageway linking the Montreal Main Branch and Head Office buildings are four terra cotta bas-reliefs symbolizing Agriculture, Navigation, Arts and Crafts, and Commerce. These panels graced the façade of the Bank’s first building, constructed at the corner of Saint François Xavier and Saint Jacques Streets in 1819 and demolished to make way for a post office in 1876.
