  • 2015 Annual Report
    2015 ANNUAL REPORT MISSION AND VISION Heritage Montreal has worked to promote and to protect the architectural, historic, natural and cultural heritage of Greater Montreal, its neighbourhoods and communities. This private non- profit organization is at the heart of an extensive network of partners, working through education and representation to celebrate, develop and preserve Montreal’s identity and uniqueness. McGill College © Jean-François Séguin, photographer Séguin, © Jean-François Avenue 2015 ANNUAL REPORT | HERITAGE MONTREAL 1 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT It is now four decades since Heritage Montreal began raising Montrealers’ awareness of the importance of safeguarding and enhancing their urban heritage, and accompanying them on explorations of our city. With celebrations marking our 40th anniversary held throughout the year, 2015 provided opportunities for us to assert more forcefully than ever our collaborative and strategic- action role vis-à-vis elected officials, the media, and members of the Greater Montreal community. While some files had very unfortunate outcomes—for example, the elimination of the vestiges of the former tanneries settlement in Saint-Henri—others were more successful, such as Maison Alcan and the Square Viger project, thanks to the productive actions of Heritage Montreal, among others. As has been the case since the founding of the organization, we will remain vigilant and spare no effort to ensure that heritage value and intelligent land use are considered integral to our city’s identity as well as its social, economic and cultural development. We engaged in many and varied projects during the past year, including the unveiling of our new digital H-MTL platform.

  • The Notre-Dame Street Overpass Sidewalk: from Bill Vazan's
    Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces Department of Art History, Concordia University The Notre-Dame Street Overpass Sidewalk: From Bill Vazan’s Highway #37 to Today Philippe Guillaume September 2010 Cynthia I. Hammond, and Anja Bock, eds. Palimpsest III: The Dialectics of Montreal’s Public Spaces An already-made geography sets the stage, while the willful making of history dictates the action …1 The sidewalk plays a fundamental role as a place of transit in the modern city, as well as being a space of sensorial experience. A specific walkway can represent aesthetic change across generations while, nonetheless, eliciting sensory experiences where the pedestrian’s feeling of safety is axiomatic. Such a space is seen in a photograph that is part of Montreal artist Bill Vazan’s conceptual project Highway #37, created in 1970. Detail 151 (Fig. 1), a black and white photograph, illustrates an eastward view of Notre-Dame Street taken from the southern sidewalk along the Notre-Dame Street overpass, a viaduct that spans over the old Dalhousie and Viger stations rail-yards. This is a historic locus linked to travel: this epic street exits Old Montreal towards the eastern part of the island. On today’s maps it spans between Berry and St-Christophe streets. When viewed through Vazan’s framing, this cityscape still serves as a striking palimpsest of the city’s modernist past, where, formally, the sidewalk encompasses all the elements associated with a safe space for pedestrian travel. A comparative view of the landscape seen in Vazan’s photograph between the time it was made and the present further enriches the narrative of this place, which nowadays sits on the cusp of the city’s salient tourist space, Old Montreal.
