Thanks for all the photos! They've been one of my favourite Spacing features.

1234 De La Montagne was featured on the show Creepy Canada in 2004 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creepy_Canada) If I can remember the story, it is apparently haunted by the spirits of people whose bodies were, uh, 'violated' by a funeral director during its tenure as a funeral home. The show's worth watching for its poorly acted reconstructions ghostly experiences but not for much else...

Un autre gros merci, Guillaume -- j'ai adoré voir les transformations parfois affreuse de MTL... vive le progrès :)

Luckily, I come from Vancouver which has destroyed even more of what little history it had, so I still think Montreal is a wonderful city to walk about despite a few modern monstrosities and many lost jewels.

Anyway, thanks for going to the trouble of sharing these photos. They tell us about a city that must have been a very agreeable place to live in, at least if you were one of the 5% or so earning more than say 1000$ per year. I wonder what will the city look like compared to today in another 120 years or so
