FRANÇAIS
Le flatiron qui se trouve à l'intersection des rues Saint-Denis et Gilford est une succession de plusieurs bâtisses attenantes dont les trois premières forment la pointe.

L'établissement d'un premier théâtre à cet endroit remonte à 1912 avec la fondation du Chanteclerc par Charles(Assef) & Julius(George) Farhood, fils et père, immigrants libanais. Ils présentaient des films et des pièces de théâtre francophones, chose rare à Montréal à l'époque.

On y trouve actuellement le restaurant méditérranéen Ouzeri, le restaurant Le Barbare et Le Théatre du Rideau Vert.
