Comments about montreal signs

There are 15 comments about "montreal signs"

Mitch: Pretty sad, it's quite literally a piece of Montreal being erased forever (I can't even visualize that part of downtown without that tiny 3 story building with the red "Bens" sign). I last passed by......

EvilGentleman: Let hear it for slinking! I am reminded of [[7658:this post]] by jack. Nice one. Joey, the problem with the height signs is, they are all metric here. I have no clue how many centimeters tall......

in response to: Wedgie!!! by Montrealbunny

EvilGentleman: Good point, but in Montreal, we have speed limits, unlike on the autobahns. And North American headlight flashing is usually reserved for emergencies, telling drivers to go ahead at stop signs and letting big-rig drivers......

in response to: Things I Hate About... Traffic by EvilGentleman

EvilGentleman: The areas bordering Verdun are pretty much the same, as well. Pointe-Saint-Charles, east of Verdun, is historically Irish, and today is a mixed community where English is not a problem. Ville-Emard, to the north of Verdun, has......

in response to: You Know You\'re in Montreal When... by EvilGentleman

EvilGentleman: Three weeks ago, my van was hit by a man from Toronto driving the wrong way down {Sainte-Catherine} Street in Montreal. I was standing outside the bar having a cigarette and drinking a Coke (I never,......

Jeff: I am from Boston and even though my home city is very nice and livable like Montreal (my favorite), it doesn't make my top five skyline cities: 1) HONG KONG - Very difficult to......

EvilGentleman: Terrible tragedy, amazing photos. Thank you for thinking of sharing this with us, it really helps us understand the need to fix the crumbling highway infrastructure across North America. Here in Quebec, we are presently having......

in response to: Bridge Collapse 1 by Tyfoid Kid

EvilGentleman: cg: I guess I have an inherent dislike of sameness. Contrasts and variety are so much better. It might have something to do with most of my childhood being spent in military housing, where each......

Tamara: ~ Someone eating a big montreal smoked meat sandwhich!!!!! ~ Chinatown... any funny signs ~ a house (any house) with multiple staircases ~ More grafs please. Montreal has some great artists ~ Orange Julip... 50's diner (this might be......

in response to: Montreal Scavenger Hunt by CE

MrDude: Does anyone is actually able to FULLY understand the parking signs in Montreal..But I mean..REALLY...like when you have 5 signs in the same spot..and you just wanna make a 15 min stop....

in response to: Things I Hate About... Traffic by EvilGentleman

EvilGentleman: I have been going nuts looking for a picture I know I took of an Inuttitut stop sign up in northern Quebec. I wanted it to be the lead shot of a series I was......

in response to: Montreal Signs 4: Westmount and Mount Royal by EvilGentleman

EvilGentleman: That picture was taken from the corner of Atwater and Sainte-Catherine, at the west end of downtown. The metro station is Atwater. Westmount is generally a lot more residential, but I wanted a picture of......

in response to: Montreal Signs 4: Westmount and Mount Royal by EvilGentleman

Chris Erb: I didn't realize that the "box" is no longer in use as the actual arts building. I didn't notice the graffiti but I'll check for it next time I'm in the city (should be......

in response to: Tall Buildings of Montreal by CE

EvilGentleman: Actually, you **did** get the new fine arts, or EVA (I have no idea what the acronym stands for) building. It is the one with the "hat" and the obtuse-angled facade on it's upper stories,......

in response to: Tall Buildings of Montreal by CE

EvilGentleman: cool-tsk, it is a shame that you wish to suppress freedom of speech when your chosen art form (and YES, I can see the artistic merit in your work) is all about freedom of speech.......
