Artwork description
The mural //\\//\\ takes its unique name from a railway-crossing motif; it tells the story of Mont-Royal and its heritage. Contemporary and highly graphic, the mural illustrates the garden city’s urban plan, as well as its origins, through motifs that evoke, among other things, Montreal melons, the rose garden at Connaught Park, the abundance of green spaces, and the importance of the railroad to the city.
