This is not about the vanishing St James United church. I'm glad to say it's staying put (for now). No, I'm just sharing some photos I took while documenting a dozen or so sites.
With photography timing is everything and this a good example. I took these photos yesterday and, well, I arrived just at the right moment.
When I left Montreal in 2000, St James United was still "encased" in that 1930's building with that neon sign (how weird was that??!!!). I couldn't believe it when I went back to Montreal to visit family and finally saw the church "naked" for the first time in my life!
ReplyDeleteI just added some photos of before the recent restoration. It's an improvement for sure.
