  • The CCA is truly a treasure in Montreal that I proudly live close to and has been my "get-away" spot since I was very young. I'm not sure that it gets the attention it deserves. The exhibition here is great and ever-changing, it's cheap, sometimes free, and studies the various forms and cultural roots of architecture, ranging between geography, design, the environment, and more. When a new exhibit opens, they throw a fantastic vernissage that is enjoyable for all; music, drinks, and interesting people all around. Now, for my favourite part - the "Arch-Park." Earlier I mentioned that this place has always been my get-away spot. Whether it was for a picnic, to take my dog somewhere quiet and not rowdy, or to simply relax alone or with friends under the Montreal summer sun - the Arch-Park has always quenched my thirst. It is beautiful, not too big, doesn't get too packed, and is under great care. There is a large green-patch next to the entrance of the Centre where many people will enjoy a picnic, take their lunch break at, and often you will find a few well-trained dogs running around. It is enclosed by green bushes and trees, with two entrances that can serve as a small seating area too. On the other side of the museum (across Renee-Levesque), you will find the other half of the park, where many people sometimes play frisbee, hangout, go for a tan, take their dog, as well as enjoy a picnic with friends (of course, this can be done on either side). Here, you can sit on the grass or sit on the cement barricade that overlooks the highway and the rest of Montreal. There are a few interesting structures laid out across this side of the Arch-Park - a chair in the sky, a few podiums dispersed across the stone rubble, and what seems to me as a part of a broken down castle entwined by a vertical garden of organic ecological art that consists of plants trailing across the walls (albeit very small; with an emphasis on 'part of'). On this side too, at night, there are a few spotlights beaming from under the rubble, just by the podiums, which give off a Michael Jackson "Billie-Jean" vibe. Sounds magical, huh?
