I did a 50km bike ride up and down the Lachine Canal and around the Old Port in MTL last weekend, and one of the things that really struck me was the amount of red brick. Old repurposed factory and loft space with red brick, and new builds with charcoal and white brick mixed with new and old red brick. Ottawa is simply lacking in colour..it's all shades of grey. CharcWhite in MTL seems to be a response and compliment to the old red brick, but in Ottawa it's a response and compliment to something that doesn't exist.
