Walking down Notre-Dame Street East through the center of Old Montreal was tense. Typically, Chris carried his Nikon D850 when visiting a foreign city. He would have preferred to be photographing historic landmarks they passed such as Montreal City Hall. Instead, the camera had been replaced with a SIG P229 behind his belt. The Napoleon III–style (also called French Second Empire) of Hôtel de Ville de Montréal is splendid. In 1878, this was the first city hall in Canada built only for municipal purposes.
