Manoir Richelieu, Pointe-au-Pic, QC, about 1915

  • Gemma Grace said:
    "A region long known for its hospitality and a landscape that has inspired painters, poets and writers from Quebec and all of Canada, Charlevoix is the perfect marriage of nature and culture. Tourist appreciation of Charlevoix dates back as far as 1761, when groups of sportsmen visited the region to fish salmon or simply relax in the invigorating natural surroundings. To cater to growing popularity, the original Le Manoir Richelieu hotel was built in 1899 and featured 250 luxurious rooms atop the cliff of Pointe-au-Pic, overlooking the majestic St. Lawrence River in the heart of Charlevoix. As a result of its excellent location and noble ambience, Le Manoir Richelieu soon became a noted destination for visitors from Canada and the U.S. Unfortunately, disaster struck in the Fall of 1928 while the employees were closing the hotel for the winter. A fire completely destroyed the property. A month after the disaster, the task of rebuilding the hotel was given to Canadian architect John Archibald, who designed it in the style of a French castle. The new hotel was inaugurated June 1929. Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu also features an 18-hole championship golf course that boasts a history of its own. Designed by British architect Herbert Strong, the course was opened in 1925 by U.S. President William H. Taft. As recently as 2000, the property was named "Canada's Golf Resort of the Year" by Canada's Golf Ranking Magazine. In June 1998, more than $140 million was invested in the renovation and expansion of the luxury Quebec resort. At its reopening in June 1999, Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu celebrated the grandeur that makes it a world-class luxury resort." www.manoirrichelieu.com/EN_FA/Property/LMR/AboutUs/HotelH...

Crossing to St. Helen's Island, near Montreal, QC, 1875

  • myrique baumier said:
    Ils devaient tous penser «Il est temps qu'on creuse le Métro...» ;-)
  • smiling detail said:
    Quand je pense qu'aujourd'hui on préserve un peu de ce mode de transport traditionnel dans les courses de canot sur glace, qui redeviennent de plus en plus populaires (quoique leur progression me semble moins rapide que les courses de bateaux-dragons en été). Mais les gens n'ont pas idée vraiment de la place qu'il avait à l'époque

Thousand Islands, ON, about 1915

  • Bruce L. said:
    Very cool shot. I especially like the way that island looks in the background. And what a stringer of (more than likely) northern pike on the side of that canoe, absolutely beautiful capture of a moment in time!
