The “City of Saints”?

A reference to all the ‘saint’ street names perhaps?

That’s what searching the internet tells me but it’s the first time I’ve heard it.

Likewise. I don’t know where I would’ve expected the City of Saints to be, but not here.

It’s the city of saints, but also Sin City (pre-Vegas). Also, the city of a hundred steeples. But Quebec is secular. We just can’t seem to keep our story straight, can we?

Was it Montreal’s turn to win this thing or something? You could throw darts at a map of Vancouver and find more interesting recent architecture. I mean, a glass box conference room on the roof of a hotel? This is ground breaking design?

You couldn’t throw darts at a map of Vancouver and find anything interesting. 1990s server farm architecture.

And City of Saints is just absurd.
