Montréal - Olympic Park Parc Olympic
Montreal's Olympic Park, to the east, was the site of the 1976 Summer Olympics.
The Olympic Stadium, at its center, holds between 60,000 and 80,000 spectators and is nowadays used for baseball, festivals, fairs and shows. Looking like a great seashell, the bowl can be covered over against the elements by a roof attached by cables to the mast looming above it.
