Montgomery Place is named in honour of Field Marshall Bernard Law Montgomery, 1^st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein, KG, GCB, DSO, PC. Montgomery Place is located in the south-west corner of Saskatoon and bounded by 11 Street W, Dundonald Avenue, CN Yards and Chappell Drive. Most of this neighbourhood was built after the Second World War in 1946 as a part of the Veterans’ Land Act settlement plan to house returning Second World War Veterans and their families. Ten years later, it became a neighbourhood of Saskatoon. Most streets and parks in the area are named for prominent military members, famous battles and military units.
