Indelible Sidewalk Art

author: EvilGentleman : Montreal, QC

We have all seen initials in concrete over the years, but actual drawings are a lot less common. These examples are located on the sidewalk directly in front of my place.

Montreal Police Bicycle

author: EvilGentleman : Montreal, QC

On Saturday, I saw this police bicycle as a policeman was giving a woman a ticket for drinking in Cabot Square, in front of the old Forum on Sainte-Catherine Street downtown. I asked if I could take a picture, and he said no pictures allowed. So I told him I did not care about him, I wanted a picture of the bike. When he heard this, he said, "Oh, ok then", and stepped back and let me take a couple of shots. Not a bad bike,...

Viva Italia! World Cup Champions, 2006

author: EvilGentleman : Montreal, QC

In my wife's office building, there is a small restaurant on the ground floor that has been World Cup central for the last month or so at least. Louie, the proprietor, has been cheering his beloved Italy from day one, while graciously allowing flags and banners from competing teams to join his Italian flags that adorn the walls of the restaurant. (Good grief, I just realized, I never photographed this! Maybe when I drop my wife off tomorrow...) Yesterday was Louie's big day. Joyous beyond belief would be my best guess as to how he must have felt. Many fans had...

Mystery Apartment

author: CE : Montreal, QC

I've finally found an apartment to move into in Montreal for the Fall. The problem is, other than a street number and a general area that I've based off proximity to a metro stop, I don't really know where it is or anything about it. Here is what I found on Google Earth: So this is the general area. it doesn't look as dense as the areas of Montreal I've been too but I'm at least a minute walk from a metro stop and it's quite cheap.

Milk Bottle Water Tower

author: EvilGentleman : Montreal, QC

The ghost of the long-gone Guaranteed Milk Company lives on in this unusual water tower just north of the Bell Centre. Hopefully someone will take steps to restore and preserve it.

Lunchtime Meditation

author: EvilGentleman : Montreal, QC

On one of my photo walks, I tool a break in the Canadian Architectual Institute gardens. As I sat and had a cigarette, this gentleman came along and started doing a martial arts-style meditation session. It was quite interesting. I'm no expert on martial arts and the associated meditation techniques, so maybe someone can help me better understand exactly what I saw.

Private Bus Stop Across From Sex Shop

author: EvilGentleman : Montreal, QC

I was standing on the sidewalk having a cigarette when I noticed this bus stop sign in an upstairs apartment across from the Sexe Cite sex shop.
