NW corner at Mont-Royal and St-Urbain


[click image to see rock]

   Plateau Mont-Royal
     - One of Montréal's first suburbs, it is an historic 
        amalgamation of several villages:
          village de Coteau Saint-Louis
          village de Saint-Jean-Baptiste
          village de Saint-Louis-du-Mile-End
          village De Lorimier 

     - The area directly around the site contains the 
        neighbourhoods of the waves of successive 
        generations of immigrants that have come to 
        Montréal.  This makes the location a 
        cosmopolitain carrefour of Montréal's cultures.
