Trying To Find A Certain Building In Canada

[Hellion]

I have tried to find pics of this certain building in Canada that I have not seen in years,I do not know the name of it,

but I know what it looks likemI have tried Ask.com and Google,with no luck.

All I know is it looks like a bunch of cubes stacked together,with windows on every side,that look like doorwalls.

other than that I used to know someone that had been there,for all I know it may not be around,let alone it is at least 40 years old,but looks very modern,anyone have any ideas where to look on the internet,since I

have tried everything just about.

Habitat 67 was designed by architect Moshe Safdie as part of the 1967 World's Fair held in Montreal. The concept for the year was 'Man and his World' and housing was one of the main themes. The concept with the design was so that no apartment shared common walls with their neighbours.

Thank you very much Guage,that is it,I never knew the actual name for years

damn! I would love to live in this place!

[Gauge]

yea it looks pretty cool! beeing able to live in a community without actually having to deal with loud neighbors, screaming children, late night fights, or creepy people bumping uglys above you!

It is one of the few structures that I have always thought was just awsome,and unlike anything else ever built,let alone this is the only one of its kind in the world.

My parents are from Montreal and I have a lot of family there. For some reason this reminds me of the athletes quarters in the Olympic village that was built for the 1976 Games. I'm sure I've seen this before since I've been on Ilse Notre Dame a bunch of times... which is where a bunch of the Expo stuff was located.

i read something that said it was bassed off of the olimpic village because the games were going to be held there

Probably the other way around. Montreal Olympics were in 76... Expo in 67.
