Each Monday, we bring you some of the popular posts from our sister blog, Spacing Montreal. We’ll keep an eye open for topics and discussions that are pertinent to current public space issues in Toronto.
• Andrew Emond makes some fascinating discoveries exploring Montreal’s Cà´te St. Paul collector sewer system. Check out Emond’s detailed account of his underground exploration and his amazing photographs of the “breathtaking spectacle†he observed.
• Spacing Montreal’s most discussed post last week (generating 20 comments to date) concerned the announcement, by municipal and provincial officials, of a $3 billion expansion of the city’s Metro.
• The construction of a new park on the currently undeveloped and fully-forested Northern summit of Mont-Royal brings mixed emotions for green space enthusiasts.
• A plan proposed by Quebec’s Ministà¨re de Transport that would see 200 homes demolished in order to rebuild part of Montreal’s Turcot Interchange is receiving enormous resistance from the city’s residents, politicians, and interest groups.
