The Sun Life Building in downtown Montreal, was built in three phases, starting around 1913 and finishing with the twenty-four-story tower in 1931.
The Beaux-Arts style building, reflected here in a modern, glass building (which has a very Dallas look) is one of many architecturally interesting structures in Montreal.
Having long held the distinction of being the largest building in the British Empire, The Sun Life Building is currently the seventeenth tallest in Montreal. It has some interesting history as well: Multiple European countries stored their gold and securities in its cellars during the World War II.
This picture is one of my “looking up” images, a collection resulting from my goal of exploring cities from a different perspective.
I particularly like the contrast between the classical architecture of the Sun Life Building and the modern building that’s showcasing the beautiful reflection.
It was a bonus that the sun was peaking over the corner of the building while I was capturing the image.
