Under the Overpass: the neighbourhoods beside the tracks

The Rosemont–Van Horne overpass soars over a historic junction of transport routes: Saint-Laurent Boulevard and the CPR, close to the old Mile End station. At this junction between two boroughs, on both sides of the railway, lie industries, residences and institutions – vestiges of a forgotten past and the beginnings of new ideas for the future.
