Обзор
[ редактировать ]Станция - это нормальная боковая платформа ; Его центральный мезонин связан с очень длинным туннелем, бегущим вдоль Бивер Холл -Хилл и под площади Виктории , что дает доступ к различным выходам.
Каждый из выходов станции связан с другим зданием или зданиями через подземный город . Выход Belmont связан и расположен в здании Beaver Hall Hall 1080; Выход Viger также связан с и расположен в колокольчике/национальном банковском комплексе. Выход Святого Антуана - это связь в основной части подземного города, связывающая здание Икао с центром CDP Capital, в то время как ротонда в южной части туннеля, ведущая к выходу Святого Жака , связывает Tour de la Bourse С центром De Commerce Mondial .
The station was designed by Irving Sager. Two steel murals by Robert Savoie, entitled Kawari Kabuto, grace the walls of the great volume over the tunnel vaults, and a mural in the pedestrian tunnel to the northern entrances is by Jean-Paul Mousseau. The southern rotunda formerly contained a multimedia installation entitled Ars Natura, promoting Montreal's science museums.
The most famous artwork, however, is one of Hector Guimard's Art Nouveau entrance porticos from the Paris Métro. One of the few authentic installations on a rapid transit station outside Paris, it was given in 1967 by the RATP (Régie autonome des transports parisiens) to commemorate the collaboration of French and Canadian engineers in building the Metro. It is located within Victoria Square on the Saint Antoine entrance, one of only four open-air entrances on the network (the others are located at Place-Saint-Henri and Bonaventure stations). In 2003, the entrance was removed, completely restored, and reinstalled.[5]
The station is equipped with the MétroVision information screens which displays news, commercials, and the time till the next train.
The station has 4 entrances:
- 605, Belmont Street (Montreal)
- 601, Viger Avenue
- 601 Saint Antoine Street W
- 605, Saint Jacques Street W
Origin of the name
[edit]This station is named for Victoria Square, which has existed since 1813; it was renamed for Queen Victoria on the occasion of the visit of the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII) to Montreal in 1860.
Until the spring of 2014, the station was named Square-Victoria. In June 2014, the station was renamed Square-Victoria–OACI, referring to the nearby headquarters of the International Civil Aviation Organization (French: Organisation de l'aviation civile internationale, OACI). This was done to celebrate the 70th anniversary of ICAO's presence in Montreal.[6]
