‘Revealing History’ • A Journey of Montreal’s Parks & Monuments Sites

‘Creating a Journey’:

The intricate notion of defining relevant historical information within the context of development, through the ‘Classification of Historic Areas’.

‘Creating Experience’:

The intertwining of ‘History ‘, within the parameters of the vision of the  ‘Green Corridor Movement’.                                Thus, enhancing the visitor experience.

This Journey will take you from the Old Port of Montreal, the Golden Square Mile, the City of Westmount, Ville Mont Royal and Ville St Laurent, ‘showcasing’ prime areas of history in Montreal.

The experience will take you through a Journey discovering how, Rail history and the Garden City Movement have transformed the the Urban experience.

See how the #Historic Board of Canada,  #ICOMOS and Municipalities, have been changing setbacks and regulations to enhance the visitor experience, creating a ‘Corridor of Discovery’ within the context of tourism.

The ‘Historic Boards of Canada’, is responsible for the designation of places, persons and events that have shaped Canadian History.

‘Communities in Bloom’ is a Canadian non-profit organisation, promoting the Garden City.

‘Canada’s Garden Route’, promotes a nation-wide program, enhancing the Garden experience.
