Jarry Park
Posted: October 5, 2012 Filed under: Uncategorized 6 CommentsJarry Park Stadium was home to the Montreal Expos baseball team from 1969 to 1976, until the covered Olympic Stadium was built and the team moved there. The Expos (named after Montreal’s Expo 67 World’s Fair) played their final game in October of 2004 and the Jarry Park Stadium was eventually converted to a tennis venue, but for Montrealers of a certain age Jarry Park will always be associated with our beloved baseball team.
A complicated scene, skillfully drawn and executed. Gotta love repetition. 🙂
Thanks Alison!
Le Grand Orange will love this, I do too.
I had exactly that comment from my husband who grew up right near the park and could hear the games from his house…
Thanks Don!
Having grown up and spending a lot of my youth in or near Jarry Park this picture brought back a flood of memories (and powerfull emotions).
Thanks, Shari
So glad you had a look John. It’s great to hear from you!!
