Mile End Type

As a photographer, history buff, lettering nerd and inhabitant of Montreal’s Mile-End neighbourhood, this lovely project neatly brings together a number of my personal obsessions.
 
“A growing collection of vernacular typography and lettering in the Mile End. Created as a visual archive to preserve the character of the neighbourhood for posterity, in the face of rampant gentrification.”
