On The Street Where You Live.

Coming from London, it's always a surprise when I go to a city that people really live in. Not in suburbs, not miles out of the centre of town, but actually in the city. Montreal is very much one of those cities, with beautiful houses and tree-lined streets all over town. The architecture of the housing here is beautiful, and it really is everywhere. It's not just the 'privileged', middle class families that live in gorgeous homes, it's all over Montreal, in every part of town. On my walk home from the Plateau this afternoon, I knew I really wanted to share this aspect of Montreal.





And this is my favourite little pocket of Montreal, Carre St. Louis, a residential square with a gorgeous fountain in the middle and completely surrounded with beautiful houses. This is definitely where I'd love to live if I come back here later in my life.
