Now for the Montreal Botanical Gardens. Across the street is the infamous Olympic Stadium. You Montrealers will know this but, according to Wikipedia, the projected cost was $250 million...and it ended up costing a billion dollars!  It's nickname is the 'Big O'.  Some joke that it should be called the 'Big Owe'. And, for those of you who watch the show, the stadium was featured in the final episode of the Amazing Race: Family Edition.

There's a nice, colourful raised planting all along the street.
