From my trip to Amsterdam a couple of months ago. Still seems as if I was just there!

If in New York, go to Brooklyn at least once, if for no other reason than to look back at Manhattan. But do go for another reason. It’s worth it! Great places to eat, some accessible urban decay, the New York Transit Museum … and there’s a great little ice cream shop not far from where I was standing, near the ferry landing, to take this photo.
This view was snapped a year ago, at dusk.

Place Ville Marie is an icon of Montreal’s landscape. The cruciform skyscraper celebrates its 50 years in 2012. Apart from its footprint, the tower is known for a rotating beacon on its roof.
The view shown above was taken last week from the concert plaza outside Place des Arts.

There’s a lot of work going on next to the Monument National on Saint-Laurent in Montreal. Almost the entire block north of the venue looks like it’s being gutted or renovated.
This building, for example, is just a facade when seen from the main street. You have to go around back to see what’s really going on …
