What was the "3 North Square" address in the North End

In searching my family history I have found a number of my Sicilian ancestors gave their family address in Boston as "3 North Square." Not only my ancestors, but many of the Sicilians immigrating from Pietraperzia, Sicily, were my family came from, also gave this address (I was working with the online Ellis Island Ship Manifests). Does anyone know anything about this address? I know that today it is a fairly nice Italian Restaurant (Sicilian I believe), and that from this restaurants website I found that this address was held a bank, a doctor's office, and a funeral home. The period I am interested in would be between 1905 and 1920 when most of my ancestors would have immigrated. I found that the bank that was at this address was: Banca Ettore Forte, established in 1906, in Boston by Ettore Forte at 3 North Square, but it seems to have been possibly out of business, changed its name & address, or merged with another bank by 1916.

Thanks,
