Habitat 67, an “Icon of Permanent Modernity”
Habitat 67 is an unusual looking residential complex located on the Saint Lawrence River in Montreal, Canada. The project was initially a pavilion housing one of the world’s largest exhibitions, Expo 67 held in 1967 and considered to be the most successful World’s Fair of the 20th century. Habitat 67 was designed by
