Exploring Pointe Saint-Charles. Quite a different urban landscape from the ones people associate with Montréal. This area was developed before the age of plexes.
So it's dominated by various types of "single family "Maisonnettes de ville" and multy-family "maison de faubourg"

And, of course, Montréal's parallel world: the ruelles.

Bonus pic: the new but underused Exo commuter train's Operation and Maintenance facility at Pointe St-Charles.

Other bonus pic: poles for the OLE going up on the REM

Even more bonus pics: the newest and the oldest bridge over the Saint Laurent river
