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 seem to recollect a previous stamp featuring Habitat 67 but this one shows it in context. What a great view they must have.

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

    I found an older stamp, featured on my blog some years ago:
