Crescent Building, Montreal

Crescent Building, Montreal

This is the Crescent Building on the corner of Crescent & St Catherine Streets in Montreal. It has some nice decoration on the exterior but the foyer is a absolute gem. But you'll have to come back tomorrow to see that.

    The lines used on the external decorative areas are very finely rended. Compared to some Deco which is rather heavy handed, this is delightfully delicate. Look at the lines aound the name Crescent Building.

      I think delightfully delicate is such a great description for this building Helen. I hope you'll like the foyer too.

      It is so easy to miss how lovely this building is. I'm sure lots of people walk past and don't even notice the sign.
