3 bridge tour of Montreal & fleuve Saint-Laurent river
We ride down to the water, go upstream, then float back downstream.
There are 17 scenic spots on this ride.
We always stop and look up at Montreal's greatest building.
The new OSM concert hall is progressing.
Descent and loop through the inner courtyard of UQAM
Surfer doing some moves on the standing wave behind Habitat 67
Complete Montreal view from Pont Jacques Cartier bridge
Pont Jacques Cartier was originally called the Montreal Harbour Bridge
The bridge's sidewalk is not original either. The present-day extra-wide sidewalk was installed at the time of the bridge's deck reconstruction in the 1990s.
This is one station at the new outdoor exercise park on Ile Sainte-Helene/ Parc Drapeau
Can we have some in parc Mont Royal please?
The south end of Ile Ste-Helene.

This was one of the major discoveries of today's ride.
For once the FSR isn't the only boat anchor
The Victoria bridge was rebuilt in MDCCCXCVII
This pier was originally out in the river.
Urban development has replaced the river here.
