1016 McGill Student Ghetto, Aylmer Street, 8x10, oil on board

sold-Manitoba

This is a scene from the McGill Student Ghetto. It's Alymer Street, I believe. I used to have a friend who lived in that redbrick building. The apartment was really tiny, it had an icebox that was automatically defrosted every Wednesday. The rent was cheap then. We used to go to free concerts at the Pollack Hall. Sometimes we could hear a music student playing the Sax from an apartment across the lane. Those were magical days.
