Goodbye to the Trinity Anglican Church

UPDATE: The Trinity Church Destroyed

The Trinity Anglican Church, located at St. Denis St. and Viger Ave and built in 1865, will be demolished this week. It's been vacant for a long time. A "superhospital" will be built in that location. The church was rechristened Eglise St. Sauveur.

Another part of history being wiped out in Montreal. Pretty sad stuff but not unexpected.

Here's an article at The Gazette about this.

I took these two 35mm B&W photos back in 2007. I was meeting a friend and we were going to Old Montreal and I just happened to take these snapshots. I realized that the church was condemned as it was boarded up and looked worse for wear.
