vieux port

The Old Port of Montreal is between the St Lawrence River and Old Montreal. This stamp shows a 2002 image with a corner of Habitat 67, a modular residential complex designed by Moshe Safdie for Expo 67 on the right. The Old Port is a neighbourhood full of activities from shopping, eating, river cruises, entertainment, festivals and more.

I like this stamp (and I've been there!).

See here my urban stamps.

I seem to recollect a previous stamp featuring Habitat 67 but this one shows it in context. What a great view they must have.
My urban landscapes are here

Canada Post issued a maple leaf-shaped stamp showing habitat 67 as part of their Canada 150 set.
