MONTREAL - a bit of everything

[mr.John]

some more photo nonsense for your viewing pleasure

Power, John!

I share your taste for Italian and German stunning sport cars.

In fact, my latest hit in that matter would be Italy/US's Alfa Romeo recent release, a subsidiary of the Fiat Chrysler group. Something pretty that I find very much inspired by Nissan's Infiniti, their higher-end set of vehicles. Some may say it's even some rip-off, to be frank, but it's actually enhanced with some slightly better design and better finishing. They call the car Giulia, some upper middle-class type sedan. Should be successful cause it looks pretty good.

Montreal's official bird should be the construction crane.

I am always happy to see Montreal in any of your photo threads, mr.John!

Very nice pics, as usual. I've specially liked the graffitis, people shots and sport cars pictures.

Thanks for sharing.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

Very close. The rail line ran to the left of the building (Wellington Tower), more or less perpendicular to the bike path, which itself runs along the Lachine Canal. Directly behind the camera is the abandoned swing bridge that spanned the canal. Out of the picture, to the right is the active CN line that crosses the canal on a former lift bridge.

He was a Mafioso who was executed.

There are a lot of constructions going on in DT MNL but most of them highrise apartment buildings. Good old fashioned MNL skyline is about to be ruined very soon, just another Toronto, Vancouver
