Montréal Monday — photos du jour, Little Maghreb, and STM service controversy
By Todd Harrison // No Comments
Each Monday, Spacing will bring you some of the popular posts from our sister blog, Spacing Montréal. We'll keep an eye open for topics and discussions that are pertinent to current public space issues in Toronto.
• The image above, titled "West End dusk," is one of the latest Photo du Jour posts on Spacing Montréal. They're a great window to an atypical and beautiful view of the city.
• Welcome to Little Maghreb profiles the emerging community of Moroccan, Algerian, and Tunisian immigrants near Montréal's Saint-Michel metro station. It's the only such neighbourhood in North America -- as the post reports, "In Toronto...there are just 665 immigrants from Algeria, compared to 26,825 in Montréal."
• Distressing news for Montréal transit riders: STM service improvements a cutback in disguise? reports that the increased bus trips offered during rush hours come at the expense of weekend schedules.
