  Wow. Looks great. Will check it out later today.

  This is great, though one more of these and we’ll officially have a “Projet Mtl is only interested in art to be consumed via drone” trend 😉

  That whole space in front of the station looks swell now that the construction is done. I have to go down and see.

  The street’s closed to traffic all summer, and it’s a great place for a saunter.

  I’ll take this chance to promote the petition to make Wellington a pedestrian street year-round: https://lawellpietonne.com/en/

  I have to say that the new Mont-Royal metro is a huge improvement from the outside. Very light and open. They just need to plant more trees in the square outside.

  Right when the weather is like this I find myself running from tree to tree to find shade. Hopefully that’ll happen.

  @walkerp, the square you see now is temporary, and there’s a design process underway to create something permanent. It’s actually quite ambitious and will also include the parking lot behind the metro station.

  @dewolf, what parking lot are you referring to? There doesn’t seem to be such a parking lot…

• Kate 10:27 on 2023-06-24 Permalink

  I think he may mean the parking lot behind the Sanctuaire du St‑Sacrement just east of the station.
