Construction on the square was started by [[His Majesty's Corps of Engineers]] in 2011. It originally consisted of eight 1x1 square foot red paving stones with an empty square in the center for a portable flagpole. This construction design was similar to Molossia's Baugh Terrace in [[Desert Homestead Province]], which had been built by [[Grand Duke Travis]] in 2008 during his tenure as Governor of Desert Homestead. | Construction on the square was started by [[His Majesty's Corps of Engineers]] in 2011.

==Buy-a-Brick program== | |||
In 2012, the Calsaharan Trade Authority was tasked with helping speed construction of Montague Square by selling personalized 1 square foot paving stones to anyone who felt a special kinship with Calsahara. This program was called "Buy-a-Brick." Personalization was limited to: Three lines of text with twenty characters on each line. Obscene or profane remarks were prohibited. | |||
The Buy-a-Brick program was not successful at all, only selling one brick. It was discontinued shortly after launching. | |||
