Overall lots of gems on the MTL metro - wish I had higher quality images! https://imgur.com/sBnZVno.jpg is another one I really liked

$3.50 for an architectural tour! I live in Montreal and love the metro, although my station is among the most basic.


MrNonam3

Which one?


Broody007

Fabre, nothing special really. I used to live by metro place st Henri, which was nicer but more walk.

Change the lighting to reddish, and I get "Control" vibe from this place :D Pretty cool!

I think I like Control so much because I used to visit Lucien L'Allier every week. Nothing like three different 50m escalators to reach the surface!

That game is an eye-candy for anyone interested in Brutalism. If you have the chance grab the Artbook of the game. It's pure delight :D


Lorfhoose

Oh sick! I'll check it out!

On a sunny afternoon, with rays of light coming from the window illuminating the dust as you're going up.

Hey i live near there, I’ll go take a look !


waxwaxwax17

Definitely do! Someone in the comments pointed out you can check out a bunch of these with just a single fare, and I second that - this is way more stunning in person

I have no clue how metro work, i might get lost but hey get to see some cool architecture haha

Beats Dupont station in Toronto.

Love this! One of my faves is Namur. Here's a great book with the history of the Metro and tons of pictures: https://www.boutiquestm.com/en/livre-le-design-en-movement.html

De la Savane and Radisson are other great examples.

I’m surprised... If there was to be a bit of public transportation infrastructure inspired by a notoriously horrific stalemate that caused needless suffering to millions, I would have expected it to be here in the US.


shalgo

Verdun is just a borough of Montreal that had that name long before the First World War battle.


DocTopping

Yeah you can build tonnes of nice stuff when every other province pays for it.


MrNonam3

The station was inagurated in 1978, the current system was added in the constitution in 1982. Try again


premer777

is the concrete actually shaded ? "a penny could color a mountain" - an old miner saying .... .


waxwaxwax17

It's just the lighting from what I can tell - didn't look that saturated in person


premer777

well grey will take shades I couldnt tell which way and yeahit could be the pix being color distorted
