That settles it, I'm moving to Montreal to find my future wife.

And did Jive and/or Gasm happen to ride in that subway car at some point before you did?

It kills me that, in some aspects, Montreal loooks like, what St Louis could have been, only because at one point they were building very silmilar housing, and now., Montreal is still a decent sized, and dense city.



BTW, that STL reference kills me. STL LOUIS!!!

OOOOOOh. The Empire of Ohio. They're opressive.


Excellent thread. I am gonna go ahead and admit that I had never seen anything of Montreal besides the skyline until these photos. And I'm kinda kicking myself over it now. Its a damn fine city.

I like the misplaced accente-égue on the "Gangster Montreal" t-shirt.

Great thread, ColDayMan. It looks like you saw much of the city.
