    It feels so weird to see this video when you take the montreal metro everyday lol!
    We just don’t realize the architecture of the stations when we take it so it’s really interesting to see it and from a non-native montrealers perspective above all. 😁

    I used to take the metro a lot in the 1980s and 90s, before anyone had smartphones. One of the things that would happen is I would stare at someone's reflection in the window. If they noticed I would pretend to be looking just beside her. Then you surreptitiously try to see if she is still looking at you. It was a funny "game" Now I suppose everyone just looks at their phones.
    Once I was taking night courses, and on the way home I fell asleep and instead of switching lines at Lionel-Groulx I ended up at Angrignon.
    When I was really young my grandmother would take me into town by metro. I lived on the South Shore so we had to take the yellow line, where the stations are separated by long distances because it goes under the river. I would sit in the window seat and stare at the blue neons going by in the tunnel. It was hypnotic.

    Great shots! I've always loved the Montréal métro. My favourite station was Saint-Henri because it's so grandiose, but over time, it became Préfontaine which is like a very good architect's loveletter to métro stations. Everything is so discreet and clever, and during the day it's extremely well lit from the outside, and from the street, although more discreet than Radisson, it also has a great 70s spaceship look, but the construction is so simple and low-tech (it was the 70s, after all). I also love the Pic and Pelle soaring art of the Monk métro.
    And bravo for your pronunciation, especially your nasal for Radisson! But French makes it almost impossible to get everything right, so: in Place Saint-Henri, there is no liaison so you don't pronounce the T; in Place-des-Arts, there IS liaison so you pronounce the first S as Z (but extra points for not pronouncing the final S!); in Champ-de-Mars, you don't pronounce the P, but you DO pronounce the final S (as an S); finally, a tiny mistake but good to know: the É in Préfontaine rhymes with pray, not brie, since É-accent-aigu is ALWAYS pronounced that way. Ah, French.

    I'm just old enough to remember when this system was pretty new. At the time it was pretty futuristic, and very stylish. I didn't know the term 'Brutalist' back then, and I don't recall much use of it in our local press. But now it seems obvious to me how influenced the Metro is by Brutalism. I just always thought the system was kind of cold, hard, and impersonal. Brightly lit with seering neon in some areas, and kind of dim in others. Now it's a bit run down & dirty, as well. That said, I've always been kind of proud of how well public transit works in our city (despite the legitimate niggles - some of which _any_ system would have).

      When it was built, each station was supposed to be unique. The burnt orange colour you see in a lot of the stations was a popular colour for decorating in the 70's. The only other subway system I've seen in Canada is Toronto. I remember nothing about it so the stations must be pretty similar. I don't find it weird, maybe because I live here.

    • @ydesroches1
      @ydesroches1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I do not know what you mean by "weird", but one must not forget that the subway stations were built at different moments in time. And each station had to look different. I was 13 at the opening on October 1966. And I do remember the excitement I felt and many Montrealers felt at that moment. For many people, it meant no more freezing at bus stops during wintertime (the subway has always been hot, almost unbearable on certain days in summertime). And it was the surest way to go see Expo 67, which opened the world for the people of Montrėal.

    The Montreal metro really looks like a ghost town during Covid! No people. In Mexico City little by little the metro has become more crowded again. Though it's now maybe at about 60% the number of people it had pre-Covid.
    I remember the Montreal metro from when I visited there. (I'm sorry to say that was a bit over 20 years ago.) I love using the metro/subway when I travel. It's makes you feel like a resident rather than a tourist.

      It sure hasn’t gone back to the pre-pandemic level of busy because I almost always have a seat now (except at rush hour) whereas before it was much more rare to get one sometimes.

    You missed the nice stained glass at Champs-de-Mars! However, I found the stained glass better at Charlevoix station. I also recommend visiting Verdun and Namur station

    If you like Place St. Henri, you'd adore some of the metro stations in Santiago de Chile. There's a few where they have these art-deco brass pillars holding everything up, and you can stand on one of the concourses near the ticket offices and look down on three or even four separate metro lines arriving and departing at separate levels. It's like Station Antwerpen-Centraal in Belgium. But, y'know. Metro.d

    Montreal by Metro - My friend Matt's site (metrodemontreal.com/index-e.html) Great video. You could spend days doing this. Each metro has a story of it's history and building from Matt's site. Take a look, and see what you might have missed.

    Awesome video. Love the creative look of your footage. Good decision for not filming the mask situation. 👍 Thanks for sharing.

    The beauty of Champs-de-Mars is at the exit upstairs where is was designed with lots of stained glass and colored plexiglass roofing. In summer you get splashes of colors on the walls and floors as you enter and exit the metro. It is also just north of Old Montreal and the Old port, so as you exit you are greeted with the sight of the old Viger train station building and just beyond that you have the oldest part of the city.

    I see the metro maps and each station is a white circle. In the early 80s when the orange line was being built. Instead of updating the map periodically, they would put a white sticker next to the metro station on the map. So one week you would see that place St Henri had a white sticker, then a month later you would see Vendome would have a white sticker and So forth.

    Wow, your subway stations are so clean! And thanks for the efforts... I never liked being in the subway.. The smell, the darkness.
    So many hours would be a torture to me 😊

    I visited Montreal from Toronto in 2016 and was blown away by the subway. It did feel like we went down 200km to get to the platform, pretty cool.
