Majestic Sails Benches Will Transport You To The Open Sea

1

A charming trio of sails has popped up in Montreal, but they aren’t located on water. Les Atelier Guyon’s award-winning Sails Benches are crafted in the shape of sailboats. Located on a flat green lawn overlooking the St. Lawrence River, the urban structures were commissioned as a monument honoring the founding families of Montreal’s off-island suburb Verchères.
