Montreal is such a lovely city. It really has every element that comprises a great city.

Great shots! This really does justice to the city's reputation as a great trove of residential architecture of the Victorian and Edwardian age. I bought an old Victorian circa 1875 in January and am restoring the facade as best I can. I love Montreal's finesse reflected in its architecture, and of course, beautiful women...

Every time I view a Montreal thread it reminds me of a Phoenix poster who, a few years ago, swore that Montreal was merely an ugly, old city with few redeeming qualities > More evidence to the contrary.

Insanely extensive coverage of of Canada's best urbanity. Well done.

Enjoyed this very nice tour too. Thanks for sharing, Martin Mtl!

All those stone houses in those quiet streets are beautiful. I´ve liked all the stone facades and the university atmosphere around that area.

I see last friday you enjoyed a very pleasant weather in Montreal. Was it probably the Indian Summer? We even can see people lying down in the green meadows.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

Terrific pics. I love this neighbourhood.

Montreal does curb-separated bike lanes so well. The bollard-separated bike lanes without curbs are also fantastic. As if there weren't reason enough to visit the city, I'd highly encourage anyone who likes cycling to bring a bike or rent a Bixi so that you can ride on them.

There is nothing so wonderful as a leisurely bike ride around Montreal on a languid summer afternoon/evening.

He lived in Phoenix, his brain was fried in the Valley of the Sun.
