The Montreal Eaton Centre (French: Centre Eaton de Montréal), colloquially known as the Eaton Centre, is a shopping mall and office complex in downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is named after the now-defunct Eaton's department store, and with the Toronto Eaton Centre, is one of two remaining Eaton Centres in the country.
The Montreal Eaton Centre opened on November 14, 1990. In 2018, it absorbed its adjacent sister mall Complexe Les Ailes and the two shopping centres were combined into a single property which retained the Montreal Eaton Centre name. As such, the property consists of two separate buildings at 677 Saint Catherine Street West (the former Eaton's flagship store which had become the Complexe Les Ailes mall in 2002) and 705 Saint Catherine Street West (the former Les Terrasses mall, which became the original Montreal Eaton Centre). It is accessible through the Underground City, which is connected to the Montreal Metro's McGill station.
The Montreal Eaton Centre shopping mall has a 45,000 square metres (480,000 sq ft) of gross leasable area. The building features an additional 51,000 square metres (550,000 sq ft) of office space on the upper levels, branded as "1500 University." A bronze statue of hockey player Ken Dryden and a three-storeys-tall tableau made by fine arts enamel painter Bernard Séguin Poirier are located in the mall.
