A tribute mural to Montreal musician Bad News Brown. Originally from Haiti, Paul Frappier – better known as Bad News Brown – came to Montreal at the age of ten to live with an adoptive family. He quickly became a local celebrity for his harmonica playing in the streets and metros, and for contributing to other local shows and hip hop events. In 2009 he released his first solo album called "Born 2 Sin" with a title track of the same name. He was really starting to come into his career when he was murdered at the age of 33, in February 2011. Police are apparently still searching for leads.

The legendary Forum -- the long-time home of the Montreal Canadiens hockey team -- has been converted into a mall. They marked centre ice with this face off circle. A few seats from the old arena were preserved, although they aren't in their original positions. There's also a roped-off statue of the iconic #9 Maurice "Rocket" Richard sitting on a bench.
