  I've met him once vaguely decades ago at l'empire des futures stars...and John is at corner Ste Marguerite.He always served us well except the day we went with our good friend ,a big black bassist .Then "John's owner" became very nasty and gave us the worst service ever...never went back there...

  well, heh heh, it would be neat to have a picture of the chimney! In those days that chimney must have been the filthiest place on the island so let s give the photographer a lot of credit!!!

  but it is really hard to imagine the chimney being twice as high as all the church steeples LOL
Posted by nostra-YOUPPI! 9/26/2006 6:22 PM | remove
  well the old seagrams chimney was about 10 stories, the chimney at the dow brewery was probably twice that height at one time too

  K, I was just alluding to the idea that once upon a time it was a major taboo for any place to even think of building anything higher than a church. But Montreal ( as we know it) was "founded" by a sailor, lol.
