These photos were taken on a trip to Montreal in Fall of 2006. Montreal is a really pretty city with a lot of fun things to do, here are a few aerials.
More Montreal-ness after the jump
Montreal was the host city for the 1967 World's Fair which brought some very interesting architecture. Below is a very unique housing structure from that expo that is still in use today.
and this is the Biosphere, built for the Worlds Fair, its a museum dedicated to the environment
Montreal hosted the 1976 Olympics which also left some lasting impressions. This building, the Biodome de Montreal was built to host various Olympic events and now is a really cool museum that replicates four different ecosystems found in the Americas with vegetation and wildlife from each.
This is the Olympic Stadium from the 76 Olympics, its right next to the Biodome de Montreal.
