During the 19th century, Mile End developed around four sites: the tavern, the quarries, the church and the railway station. This tour will explore the notable people and the economic activities behind these places, and seek out the traces left behind by these early gathering places.<\/p>\n

The industrial sector of Mile End is changing rapidly. This walk will follow the trail of clues about the buildings and activities that filled the area along the railway lines for three-quarters of a century, before they fell silent not so long ago. Did you know there was once a Mile End station with train service to Vancouver? Or that a brewery, several dairies, and two piano factories used to operate nearby?<\/p>\n

East of Saint-Laurent Boulevard, massive concrete factory buildings were built between 1965 and 1975. In their shadow can be found the ghosts of even earlier industrialization, which spurred the urbanization of Mile End. Today, a concentration of artists unique in Canada springs forth from the concrete.<\/p>\n

This tour will offer keys to understanding a varied urban landscape where many structures \u2013 including the forecourt of an old station, a public bath, and a monastery \u2013 stand next to the megastructures.<\/p>\n
