The Seville Theatre (1910s) | Montreal In The Time Of Tramways
Historic views of Montreal’s trams in the early 20th century (2/12)
This is another vintage postcard from my Ste-Catherine St. collection. It shows Montreal’s core shopping district (with trams, of course) at the turn of the twentieth century.

Evelyn, I love the muted tones of the colors of this postcard! thanks for sharing it!
They called them streetcars here, and if they had been smart they wouldn’t have gotten rid of them.
Oh, LOVE those trams. This is favorite kind of postcard. Beautiful.
Nice view! Do you know if any of these buildings still stands?
Wonderful. Look at all the people on the street. Happy PFF.
Wonderful card. On a holiday I once stayed in a small hotel at the Ste. Catherine St, and this card brings back some beautiful memories. Thanks for sharing.
All aboard! I’m always ready for a scenic train rie via your blog E!
What a beautiful postcard. I would have liked to visit there at the turn of the century. Happy PFF!
Lovely card. Houston used to have trams like this and is finding out that perhaps it was too bad *they* got rid of them.Happy PFF!
That is a wonderful postcard. I love all the detail and I imagine the men and women are enjoying shopping.

This is a great old card.
I can remember all the tram tracks being taken up in the name of modernisation. And now they are being replaced in so many areas.
Wonderful postcard, thanks for sharing!
Judging by the cars, and clothes, I would think the pic was taken sometime around 1920
