Hm.. yeah, makes sense that they would've built something like this for Expo.

From http://www2.ville....planetarium_a.html
PRESENTED BY THE POLISH-CANADIAN COMMUNITY
ON THE OCCASION
OF THE CANADIAN CONFEDERATION CENTENNIAL
AND THE MILLENNIUM OF CHRISTIAN POLAND
I guess that dates the photo to recently after the planetarium's construction?

Maybe he stopped for a beer?
What was the purpose of that low Dow building on the right anyway? Bottling?
And can you even get a Black Label anymore? That was not a bad beer as I remember.

I just noticed what looks like a skywalk connecting the two buildings.
And yeah.. you can still buy Black Label, in 40oz bottles too!

Copernicus appeared in front of the Planetarium at the end of the "Terre des hommes" exhibits. It was a gift to Montreal for Expo 67 and it was then sitting in front of the pavillion.

This would have been taken in 1966 most probably, in time for Expo 67.

J'adore les petite autos !
The foundations and the basement of the building were still there in 2000. Utility service tunnel was still leading to it , and a family was living there, steeling electricity from the school. There were there until the completely remove thoses foundation to build the "pavillon B"

65-66 Ford Falcon, VW Beetle, GM A-body (Chevelle/Malibu by the look of it), Big Dodge/Plymouth sedan, Buick coupe, Mini, end cars are two big Chryslers, and the last one, no idea.

Hard to believe but yes the buses were once brown here. Cant remember what year they switched to blue, probably 66-67 for the Metro? in '70 for the start of the MUC?

Blue paint was probably cheaper.
