Coming up on Sunday: A Blue Met Walk in the Bairro Português

I think there are still places left in the  walk I'll be leading on Sunday morning as part of the Blue Metropolis International Literary Festival.

Called How the Portuguese Saved the Plateau, it will lead participants through on of Montreal's currently trendy neighborhoods which was saved from urban distruction by Portuguese immigrants.

In the best Jane Jacobs tradition, the neighborhood is a walkable village that has stood the test of time.  For info, try this link.  The photo is of the Parc du Portugal where we'll be starting about 11 a.m.
