Check out these vintage shots of Montreal in the 1960s (PHOTOS)
If you’re in the mood for a little bit of time travelling, why not check out some photos of Montreal in the 1960s?
Since the era of lava lamps, bell-bottoms, and Beatlemania, Montreal has gone through some obvious changes, yet also stayed quite the same.

The photos, courtesy of Archives de la Ville de MontrĂ©al, feature building the city’s metro stations, Ste. Cat at night, winter atop the mountain, the Orange Julep, the Montreal Expos (sigh), and more.
Who knows, maybe you’ll even spot your parents from the 60s!
