Image description:
|
Thanks to its steel structure, the Duluth building reached the dizzying height of ten floors, the limit under Montr¿al by-laws until the 1920s. The stone-clad building recalls the three sections of a classical column, just like the Royal Trust building, with its base, shaft (repetitive intermediate floors) and capital.
