Rue Notre-Dame

After lunch I went for a stroll along rue Notre-Dame. There are many historic buildings along this street especially around the Place d'Armes square. On the south side of the square is the grand Basilique Notre-Dame cathedral. A cathedral of a different order is the original Bank of Montréal on the north side. On the east side is the Art Deco style Aldred Building. The 1960's stark black monolithic Banque Nationale on the west side completes this vignette of Montréal's history and architecture.
