Which city would you like to visit in 1930s?

Merci infiniment d’avoir fait Montréal. C’est impressionnant de comparer à ce que l’on connaît aujourd’hui. 🙏

I live in Southern Cal and went to Quebec and Montreal last year. Montreal still has most of those buildings and they value their historic architecture.

A lot of that footage is amazingly current. Some changes occurred, of course, but the basic outline is the same. Montreal is my hometown, and I filmed and photographed it for more than 40 years and your clip is right on the money!

I am a Montrealer, my parents were 1 years old when these images were captured. Looking at the elegance of the people, I understand better how keen my dad was on dressing so well. He was a dandy. And my mom to this day dresses up nicely every time we visit her or we go out with her. Montreal was truly a word class city and it has recaptured its beauty over the past few decades after a period of neglect.

I don’t think Montrealers know how truly lucky they are to be from this city. It remains joyful, rustic, bohemian and cultural.

Great video. Interesting to see a sign for the White Star Line at the dock at the end.

This kind of footage is way better and more realistic than any Hollywood recreation.

You know, when I first noticed this video title come across my computer screen I thought "so what!" But something nudged me to take a peak....and I am so glad I did....I was so intrigued and glued to the screen to the very end. What a gem of a historic treasure to take a "walk back in time." I grew up in Quebec province and once in a while traveled to Montreal....what a difference as time goes on. Thank you for the quality and sound and a trip back to the way things were once upon a time. 💯☺🇨🇦🇲🇶

I am obsessed with this. I have always loved these remastered re-colorized footage clips but I have yet to see one for Montreal, where I was born and continue to call home. Thank you for sharing!

C’est tellement impressionnant de voir la façon de vie avant. J’habite à Longueuil, c’est un banlieu de Montréal ♥️
