View Full Version : MONTREAL Will Devour You Like the Man-Eating Beast That She Is (Fall Photos)



Kilgore Trout
Nov 26, 2006, 9:16 AM
salut tout le monde. it's been two months since my last montreal photothread. this can be blamed on the solid month of rain we had from mid-october to the week before last: twenty-nine days of rain. four o'clock sunsets. drowned leaves. you'll forgive me for wanting to hurl myself and my camera in front of an oncoming metro train.

but, as final fantasy sings (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8PZ8-cpWc4), "montreal might eat its young / but montreal won't break us down." so take that, you old whore -- you haven't killed me yet.

when you're done with this thread, remember to go visit URBANPHOTO (http://www.urbanphoto.net) my collaborative blog with nearly twenty international contributors and daily updates.

KT, Do you will go to manifest to City Hall tomorrow evening against R-B Ave ?!


no, unfortunately, because i have to work all evening.

What's the situation with Av. du Parc?

back in october the mayor decided to rename it after former quebec premier robert bourassa. people were outraged, ostensibly for two reasons: the lack of public consultation (there was no warning beforehand of the mayor's decision); park avenue's heritage value (it refers to frederick law olmstead's mount royal park and it also has cultural and literary significance).

the reality, i think, is that park avenue is one of those names that have grown to resonate with people over time. it has been around since 1863 and it is as well-engrained in the consciousness of montrealers as a yonge street or a fifth avenue or a ste-catherine street. when people hear "park avenue," they think of their own personal history on the street, they think of the neighbourhoods that surround it, they think of greeks and jews and the other ethnic groups that made park avenue their home. (apparently, park avenue is canada's most famous street in greece.)

there's also a sense of popular struggle, too: park avenue is seen as a "people's street" and the unilateral decision to rename it, by a mayor who was friends with robert bourassa and who represents the outremont political elite, struck many as typically arrogant. recently, two events have only confirmed this feeling: the bourassa family's response has indicated that they feel entitled to the street, and the mayor's office sent out a letter that seemed to dismiss, inadvertantly, the whole opposition to the renaming as an issue for "neo-montrealers" who want to protect "their history."

city council will vote on the name change tomorrow. unusually, in a nod towards the divisiveness of the issue and the fact that he would lose a ton of political capital if park avenue was renamed, the mayor has allowed a free vote. nobody is expected to vote along party lines, which is astonishing in a city hall as rigidly partisan as montreal's. still, the vote will be close. it could go either way. i'm bracing myself for a major disappointment. let's hope i'm wrong.

Nov 26, 2006, 8:07 PM
There's an online petition http://causes.ca/duparc with some 20,000 "signatures" against the name change, but I doubt it'll serve as anything. I'm going to chain myself nude to a Parc Ave street sign if the motion passes in city council. Seems like the only effective way to battle those fat cats in city hall.

surprisingly so, yes. your photo is taken from the old garment district on lower spadina, looking northeast towards bloor and yonge, right?

is it for a particular passport or just any green pakistani passport ?
it may be for the blackmarket ?

i kind of doubt it -- would a pakistani passport have much value on the black market? it doesn't exactly buy you a lot of travel privileges. a canadian passport, by contrast, lets you travel to many countries without a visa, and anyone who lives here for three years can become a citizen.

nope, it was taken from the cooper building on st. laurent near duluth, looking over the lower plateau towards sherbrooke metro. the ghetto isn't visible from that location; it's blocked by a bunch of apartment towers.

An update: city council voted for the name change to Robert-Bourassa Avenue (40 for, 22 against). Now this goes in front of the (provincial) Toponymy Commission. Opponents to the name change say they'll keep on fighting but from what I understand of the commission's role it's pretty much a done deal.

Note: I don't think there's much of an issue in Montreal that an important street should be named after Robert Bourassa somewhere, as he was one of the very few politicians in Quebec to be (generally) admired by both separatists and federalists alike. However as KT pointed out Ave. du Parc refers to the Mt. Royal park designed by Olmsted, thus the name of the street already has geographical/historical significance. As with most other places in Quebec, in Montreal there is a truckload of significant streets named after Roman Catholic saints (St-Urbain, St-Laurent, St-Joseph, St-Hubert, St-Denis, Ste-Catherine, St-Michel..). While it reflects Quebec's cultural heritage I don't think it'd be such a great deal if one of those was changed for Robert-Bourassa Ave.

Totally agree with you on that! Park Avenue should stay park avenue. They should have changed St-Joseph to Robert Bourassa. the guy was raised on that street!

Kilgore Trout
Dec 1, 2006, 1:05 PM
yeah, st. joseph would have been a much greater choice -- but tremblay decided against it because of neighbourhood opposition! rumour has it that because he's an ex-alcoholic-turned-jesus-freak (as with most canadian politicians, his religious beliefs are not public) he did not want to rename a saint street.

but i'm resigned to robert bourassa avenue -- officially. i really hope that montrealers are like new yorkers, who still call avenue of the americans "6th avenue" even though it was renamed 60 years ago.

Awesome pics man, I love all of them. They look alive.
One question, which church is this?
I think I never saw pics of it and where is it located?

thanks in advance.

I think it is the quebeco-portuguese roman church in Jarry St. near St.Denis. I assisted to a wedding here and it was pretty similar to this place.

it's the st-jean-baptiste church on rachel and henri-julien. it's portuguese catholic and right in the heart of "little portugal."

Honestly, I dont know what to say because no words can express how great this city really is...

The only thing I can say is that a thread like this one should never go away from this board !

KeeP on the Good Work Kilgore Trout ! :tup:

I'm virtually right next to that church and a number of shops with portuguese food and their flag seems to be waving from half the buildings.

Amazing shots there, KT.

Did you use a tripod on any of these? These are all fantastic by the way.

kevin, yes, i did use a tripod for those shots. i got a lightweight metal tripod as a gift over the summer. it isn't that tall, but it's very portable.

Wow, I've had this thread saved offline for over a year, yet I've never actually expressed my appreciation for it. It's certainly one of the very few all-time classic MTL photo threads in my view.

Glorious! You are an all star!

I'm currently thinking about McGill for grad school. Threads like this convince me it's a great idea.
