Angular stairs Rear entrance. Entrée arrière. Built in 1992, Le 1250 René-Lévesque ouest, also known as IBM Marathon is 47 stories high. Although the perspective does not show it, this is actually a very tall and beautiful building in downtown Montréal. The purpose of the bird-like structure above is to have a place from which the window-washers can hang their platform. Contruit en 1992, Le 1250 René-Lévesque ouest, also known as IBM Marathon est haut de 47 étages. Bien que cela n'est pas évident pas la perspective, c'est au fait un très bel et grand édifice au centre-ville de Montréal. Le but de la structure à l'allure d'un oiseau au-dessus de l'édifice est d'avoir une place après laquelle les laveurs de fenêtres peuvent installer leur nacelle.

I did an Autostitch composite shot of , a couple of weeks ago, here's the same thing for the overlapping rectangles west side facade, facing Drummond Street. I can't say that I was really taking note of what cars were parked on the Drummond Street side of the parking lot facing the Bell Centre (Centre Bell), from where I took the source photos for this Autostitch, but I think that red Ford Focus makes a superb foreground anchor, adding a bright dash of crimson red to overwhelmingly blue and grey surroundings.
