There’s a terrific multi-page article about Montreal’s lost rivers in the Saturday edition of The Gazette. I’ve been working with journalist Marian Scott who did an excellent job researching the subject by bringing in a broad range of people including city historians, architects, engineers, geologists and environmentalists. It’s been a fun and interesting project and it was nice to see a few of my photos used. I really wasn’t expecting to see myself on the front page so that was a nice surprise.

Unfortunately what’s online isn’t quite as interesting without a lot of the visuals that are in the print version, but for anyone interested in having a read, you’ll find the different sections below.

Our island’s lost rivers – main article

‘Drainer’ explores the world of water under our feet – section about yours truly (a few of the numbers in there aren’t quite right, but otherwise all is good)

Water, water everywhere -  summary of some of the island’s lost watercourses

This CSI tracks a polluted creek – section involving Daniel Green of Le Société Pour Vaincre la Pollution (the Society to Conquer Pollution)

Congrats! I’m up north so i haven’t had a chance to see the print version, but it looks great.

Great stuff, Andrew. The unnamed props to Toronto’s Lost Rivers project in the first article made me smile.
