I haven’t been able to rev myself up to walk for the last little while, it’s been so hot and muggy. But yesterday, with things cooler, I got back in the saddle and decided to explore around Ontario street east, and what did I happen upon there but the newly renovated and restored Bibliothèque Maisonneuve. Whoa, it’s hard to believe I’ll ever come across, in all my walking of the city, a building as spectacular as this! The mix of old and new, the views, the rooftop garden—it absolutely deserves a visit if you’re in the vicinity. Or make a special trip. You won’t be disappointed. Too bad the library I used to work in didn’t look like this. I never would have called in sick. And just across the street, heading east, a nifty mosaic of La Bolduc. And a bit further east on Ontario, no politically correct ramp to get up the steps for parents burdened with strollers, but instead, as a sop, their own private doorbell.
