Place Viger | Montreal In The Time Of Tramways

Historic views of Montreal’s trams in the early 20th century (4/12)

 

This is an early twentieth-century view of a tram and horse-drawn carriages in front of Montreal’s Place Viger Hotel and Canadian Pacific Railway Station. Canada has had its own flag since 1967, but this postcard predates as you can see the British Ensign in the top left-hand corner.
