Places I want to go

Places on this traveler's wishlist.

The Monkland Tavern (5555 Monkland Avenue, NDG) neon sign is a splendid example of what the signmakers of yore called ‘bastard lettering’ — a specially created script that is not based on a font or typeface. It was removed from the main facade in 2005 because it is an anglicization of ‘Taverne’ and does not therefore comport with the language laws brought into effect in Québec in 1977.

Montreal, Québec

Army drills in front of the Crown Hotel. Designed by W.C. Harris, architect, this was meant to be the working man's hotel. It was less luxurious but still far above most hotels of the day. In 1916 the 185th Battalion was stationed at Broughton. The town had been deserted, but had fine quarters for the military: officers and the hospital were in the Broughton Arms; the non-commisioned officers at The Crown Hotel; and the enlisted men in the forty-three cottages that had been built for miners.
