I wrote another article for Untapped Cities: Downtown Montreal: the lavish mansions of the Golden Square Mile. (Click the link to read the full article)
It’s about how the former homes of the city’s late 19th century bourgeoisie, located in downtown Montreal, are being used today.
Here are some more photos of the area that I took whilst out for the photoshoot:
The sky reflecting into the windows of a building on Sherbrooke Street West.
Buildings on the campus of Mcgill University.
Ravenscrag, a former mansion turned into a psychiatric institute.
Ravenscrag’s beautiful premises.
Street art on Prince-Arthur street.
These colorful rooftops are not located in the Golden Square Mile. They are a bit farther east, at Carré Saint-Louis, where the francophone bourgeoisie lived during the same era when the Golden Square Mile was thriving (for anglophones).
