Mount Royal
Mount Royal
From their web site :
"A tour of “the mountain” isn’t complete without a stop at Smith House, a charming stone farmhouse just down from the Mount Royal Chalet and Belvedere Kondiaronk.
Built in 1858, this example of neo-classical rural architecture was once the home of a wealthy merchant and businessman. At the time, Mount Royal was indeed an oasis of freshness and tranquility sought by the bourgeois who wanted to get away from the polluted and overcrowded St. Lawrence bank. It was acquired by the City on Montréal some fourteen years later for the creation of a park, and went on to serve as park superintendent residence, art centre, and hunting and nature museum.
Today, in addition to offering welcome services, such as visitor information, a café, a gift shop and a permanent exhibition that highlights the history of this iconic natural landmark, Smith House is home to the offices of Les amis de la montagne, a non-profit organization that protects, improves and promotes the sustainability of Montréal’s Mount Royal."

The Beaver Lake pavilion
"Beaver Lake pavilion was inaugurated in 1961
Built between 1956 and 1958, inaugurated in 1961, the pavilion is located west of the lake. Designed by architects Hazen Sise and Guy Desbarats, it was considered one of the most innovative buildings in Montreal, with a corrugated roof and large windows. It was renovated in 2005-2007.
The pavilion houses a restaurant named The Pavilion.
In 2007, the Ordre des architectes du Québec (Order of Architects of Quebec) awarded the Excellence Award in architecture to architects Pierina Saia and Réal Paul and to the City of Montreal for the conservation and heritage restoration of the Beaver Lake pavilion."
