Château Frontenac: 1900
Circa 1900. "Château Frontenac & Dufferin Terrace, Quebec City." This majestic hotel, constructed by the Canadian Pacific Railway on a bluff overlooking the St. Lawrence River, opened in 1893. 8x10 inch glass negative, Detroit Photographic Company. View full size.

Possibly the most prestigious hotel in eastern Canada, the Chateau Frontenac has been greatly expanded since 1900.
Montgomery Clift didn't want to look up
In Hitchcock's "I Confess" (1953), Montgomery Clift plays a priest who is charged with murder. In one scene, the priest exits the courthouse into a hostile crowd; he looks up to see people staring down at him from a window in the Chateau Frontenac.
It was reliably reported that Clift, a Method actor, caused considerable delay in shooting because he wasn't convinced the priest had "motivation" to look up.
