Annual general meeting – À l’aube des restes industriels

Monday 12 May: Annual General Meeting

Join us with a glass of wine and snacks to go over the events of 2013 and discover the plans of Friends of Saint-Laurent Boulevard for 2014. The business part of the meeting will be very short.

We’ll also hold a discussion on the place of the Main in the memory landscape of Montreal. How can history and heritage contribute to the present vitality of this central boulevard?
