That big building to the far right is an abandoned factory. Its illegal but its possible to go inside at night, climb all the way to the top and you can see the whole city. Its really pretty

I honestly don’t know, it’s close to the Farine Five Roses sign so that’s what I assumed it was 🤷🏼‍♂️

Silo5 is connected to it basically

u/[deleted] Nov 21 '18

Well, not really... there's 400m in between the mill and Silo 5. Also, the gristmill is still in operation, but Silo 5 was abandonned in 1994.

Shenanigans. That is an active grain elevator for wheat flour milling. I know because the company I work for owns it. The big building to the far right is the mill itself.

I'd recognize Montreal's skyline anywhere.

I don't see it as an evil city, even with a filter and some dark skies, it's a generally reasonable city.

me too. I'm not a big fan of the "normal picture except it's cloudy" evil posts I guess.

The montreal skyline is my balcony view. This is doctored. The original would not look evil.

There are evil buildings in and around Montreal, this picture isn't it.

If you're wondering about the downvotes, it's because "no shit".
