St. Lawrence River (Fleuve St-Laurent) from Place Ville Marie

View of the Saint Lawrence River from Place Ville Marie (January 25, 2018). On the left is the venerable Pont Victoria, and on the right the old Pont Champlain with its replacement (Pont Samuel-de-Champlain) under construction. Dead-center is the Farine Five Roses sign. Middle-distance on the right are some of the new condo towers of Griffintown. Center foreground (receding to middle distance) is the new Bonaventure park. You can see "Dendrites" (Steel sculpture by Michel de Brion) at the bottom. To the right of the park are the train tracks that go into Bonaventure Station.

 

In the distance you can see the farmland of the Montérégie and the mountains of Vermont.
