This desk was acquired from Bank of Montreal’s Head Office at First Canadian Place (Toronto Financial District) in the mid 1990’s.\u00a0The Bank of Montreal was established in Canada’s oldest banks, established in 1817 as Montreal Bank.<\/p>\n

The desk was released from the bank during the period that Matthew William Barrett was\u00a0Chairman of the Bank(1990-1999) and coincided with changes in the bank’s furnishings, office decor, layout and even operating divisions. It was a time leading up to the Bank’s increased focus on online banking and the launch of the mbanx project.<\/p>\n

Given the desk’s design, quality of wood and quality of fabrication, it is likely it was used by one or more of the Bank’s top executives and \u00a0possibly the very desk upon which the mbanx project was approved. If this desk could speak what stories it could tell!<\/p>\n

Are you next in line to use this desk to sign off on multi-million dollar deals? This could be your good luck charm, your status symbol, the most effective desk you’ll ever own or one of the best investments you could ever make. The replacement cost of this desk (labour, genuine Canadian wood, history and legacy) will only increase with time. You may be able to replace the desk’s design, but you can’t replace this specific desk’s history.<\/p>\n

It is a large full-size desk (Height:30″, Length:72″, Width:36″) that requires 4 men to move. This desk is as solid as solid can be.<\/p>\n
