Cité du Havre, then and now, near the Montreal Port Authority, a place frequented by very few. The building on the right was built for expo 67 and was where the Fine Arts Exhibition was held in 1967. The following year, the Musée dart contemporain de Montréal moved in and occupied the building until 1992, when they moved to their present location on St. Catherine Street, near Place des Arts. The sculpture on the left, the Tall Couple by Louis Archambault, was commissioned by Expo 67, The House of Seagram, and is now at the University of Toronto, in Scarborough. The concrete base that the Tall Couple stood on, during expo 67, is still there (at Cité du Havre), to this very day.
