'''Cabot Square''' is one of the central squares of the [Canary Wharf](/source/Canary_Wharf) Development on the [Isle of Dogs](/source/Isle_of_Dogs).

The square includes a fountain and several works of art including Cast 2 of [Henry Moore's](/source/Henry_Moore's) [Draped Seated Woman 1957–58](/source/Draped_Seated_Woman_1957%E2%80%9358).

The London offices of [Credit Suisse](/source/Credit_Suisse) and [Morgan Stanley](/source/Morgan_Stanley) are in Cabot Square.

In the northwest corner of the square is a small memorial stone to Michael von Clemm, an international banker of the 1960s, 70s and 80s, who had one of the original ideas for the development of docklands into a financial centre and who was Chairman of CSFB, a forerunner to Credit Suisse's Investment Banking division

On the east side of the square is Cabot Place, a large shopping centre designed by [Pelli Clarke Pelli](/source/C%C3%A9sar_Pelli) with [Adamson Associates](/source/Adamson_Associates) as [executive architect](/source/Architect_of_record). The square is also home to several restaurants, including First Edition, Sri Nam, and Corney and Barrow.

==Cabot Hall ==

Cabot Hall, on the east side of the square was a large banqueting and performance hall which opened in 1991 and is the venue for regular concerts and events. In 2006 [Canary Wharf Group](/source/Canary_Wharf_Group) announced that Cabot Hall would close at the end of 2006 to be converted into additional retail and restaurants, and in 2011 the restaurant space was filled by Scottish restaurant [Boisdale](/source/Boisdale_(restaurant)).<ref>[http://www.bighospitality.co.uk/Venues/Boisdale-Canary-Wharf-site-set-to-open-in-April Boisdale: Canary Wharf site set to open in April 2011]</ref>

Cabot Square and Cabot Hall are named after Italian explorer [John Cabot](/source/John_Cabot).
